bustemupbob - wondering if you could provide an update on your painted Seibon hood? How is the paint holding up? Any flexing or chipping?

Finally.......

Finally someone with the ***** to paint his c/f hood so it matches the rest of
the car! Most members wouldn't paint their hoods because they want everyone to know they have c/f.....so their cars end up looking like patch-
work quilts. I like it, good job! It's a shame you have to run a front
license plate, kinda breaks up the frontend.

I agree with you gary. Especially with a Black Obsidian G, the CF Hood can make the car look dirty and mismatched. Thats why I'm leaning towards painting my TS CF Hood.

No not really, one rock chip in it. Paint is still real good.

hmm...after seeing your update, i am not sure how i feel about your car anymore.

personally, i think the hood & grille look great!

the wheels & that gargantuous front lip are killing it (imo)
