Carbon Fiber Hood Installed Today

Car is coming along slowly but surely I am debating on painting the outer perimiter of the hood to match the car. I am just waiting to get my KurumaZ bumper painted and installed next.

Which grille should I go with? I have never been a huge fan of the gilla style, they remind me of a big mouth bass for some reason but friends of mine are telling me to do it... not sure on the grille... Give me some opinions please

i would go with a data system grill. other then that most grills come intergrated with a front bumper.
if you want data system i can get a big discount since i made several orders through them.

Paint the hood partially. I saw it on another member's CF hood and it looks sharp. I've never liked the idea of a fully exposed CF body part, but some exposure makes it look real nice.

Yeah,

I am thinking about leaving the center CF and painting the outside areas around the inlets the body color. I want a "light spray" so at angels you can still see the CF under the paint as well.

I got to get this puppy ready for NOPI on the 18th.

that hood looks sweet.... get it color match and i think it would look nicer unless you really like to stand out.... and in that case, leave it and get more CF on the car.....

My idea for the car is to go Data System grille, Veilside Underwings in CF and a rear defuser in CF. And paint the outside areas of the hood leaving the center CF. Spray and put the KurumaZ bumper and then I'll be done... Until I get the Rotora BBK in the Deep metalic blue

I would just love to have a de-badged STOCK grill. But I have never seen one.
