Don't mind me Vivek..I've just never been a fan of the roof spoilers. I think I'm in the minority on that though. I tried it myself once and winded up selling it.

For the hood, take a look at some of the coupe vented hoods. Ive seen a few with those sections painted black. It looks real good. I'll see if I can find a few pics for you

Here another one Vivek. Is your vented hood CF? If so you could do some cool things with fading the paint to CF.

The most aggressive color IMO is dark grey. The oem chrome pieces would look good with that "black" chrome. Not sure what you call it, im sure someone can chime in. As far as the options you've provided, I'm voting for the first. Have you considered the murder look?

For an aggressive look black roof, black vents on hood, possibly where fenders are too, black roof spoiler. Doing so gives it a more sporty look IMO. Black handles too possibly, and chrome trim, all black.

I like the idea of black chrome that was mentioned...very unique, but won't be as sporty, still would look good.

I think it'd be hood rich but will look good. Just very small gold flakes that show up in the sun though, not like...mad glitter. Kinda like wakling up to it.......you see the black...and then the sun hits it....


DAYMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN

something that's subtle but screams custom when you REALLY look at it.

LOL
