I want the carbon fiber hood, but my paint option would be to put a desing on the hood using your Vibes color. I have a shadow Vibe So I wqould put the Pontiac Logo on my hood in Shadow. Thats just me.

hummm, that a thought, & I could do it in a decal rather than paint. Thanks!

Like i said at Ames, i think it would look good without anything done to it. If you get it, try it on and see, if you still want it painted then go forth my brother.

Check out this month's issue of Hot Compact Imports, they have almost the whole mag dedicated to painting (not vynal graphics!). And they do a Evo style CF hood like your thinking of. I like how they put in small gills on the painted sides.

i was thinking about something along those lines but also having the paint/decal extend down to lower grills.

Both look bad. Sorry bout that. Keep it stock looking or get an SLP hood or something. The other way looks ghetto
