Need some help with hood (opinions)

Hey guys

I got the TS cf hood a while back and now im looking to pick up some new bat eye lids

My only dilemma is I dont know if i should:

1) Paint the hood black except vents and get black eye lids
2) Paint the sides of the hood where it leads into the grill and get black eye lids
3) leave hood and get CF eye lids


I cant decide...hope you guys can help me out


Heres some pics of my car as it is now:

Paint the entire hood black. Then, paint the inside of your headlight housing black. Then, get a different grill.

think you should paint it or get more cf/body kit. the cf hood needs more accents to pull it off imo, kinda looks odd atm. good luck!
