Re: carbon fiber
ducatiguy has both a trunk and a hood, but i havent seen him on lately. send him a pm and ask him bout them.
as for it being on a DG i dont think it will look that bad because the car is more of a dark gray, but if it were me id prolly get it painted. also i think they look the best on black cars cause they match better, hence why i would get it painted.

Re: carbon fiber
Paint the stupid hood, it looks like a back yard project if you don't paint it. Even full carbon fibre cars like the Enzo Ferrari have the carbon fibre painted!
Also I heard these aftermarket CF hoods can be dangerous in frontal collisions. I read somewhere (I'll try to find the article) that in an accident, a CF hood decapitated the occupants because it didn't crumple since it is so stiff and wasn't designed to crumple like a metal hood.

Re: carbon fiber
s2000rs - you might want to take a look in the Coupe General forum. There's a guy in there advertising for his company that does custom CF work. The name of the thread has something to do with "custom CF parts" I think.
