Hey guys,

I have a seibon cf hood currently on my black g35 coupe. I just ordered some seibon cf vented fenders from the same company.

my issue now is what to do with the pieces, should I

1. paint the hood and fenders but leave the vents cf

2. Leave everything carbon fiber

3. Fade into the hood and fenders from the bumper and then fade out the fenders into the door panels


****NOTE**** I am also having the kuruma z front with greddy sides installed as well!!!
I need help!

heres some pics of my car if anyone need them:

 

leave it cf...

being that you have a black car, you do have the option of painting or leaving it, without much of a difference... if you had a white or some other bright color car, i'd say leave it. it would be a nice contrast. but the black car gives you the ability to be 'lazy' and just put the parts on, and see if you like it. if you don't, then paint it.

it's harder to go the opposite route.

 

Black is a very difficult color to decide weather or not to paint CF with. I'd say just leave it the CF material.

 

I voted for paint, and leave the vents CF. On a black car though, you could prob get away without painting.

 

fade but dont overdo it.

 

i say leave them CF... iv never understood why people paint CF... i guess i just like the look

 

heres my friend Dave's car with cf fenders and his cf hood

 

Heres a picture of a 350z with the fenders:

 

on your friends car i dont like how the front grill looks after all around it is cf its a tough choice on the fenders, maybe fade the fenders and just keep the cf hood look?

 

its really tough, i know man lol

 

dont care for the contrast on black..paint the bit_h

 

well i think im going to paint everything on the fenders except the vents and fade the fender several inches from the door panel

as for the hood..i think i might paint everything but the vents?
