its nice but i prefer them on a black or dark car so it flows and doesnt look out of place..but if you car is fully modded with aero kit..agressive wheels and etc...its gonna be hot either way...

Well I think it looks good. The fit, and finish look good.....from the pics, anyway.
It does stand out, quite a bit. But Im with whats his name, up there...."to each his own" or whatever.
Pretty car BTW.

the hood is made from VIS
if you looks at my stock hood you can see that clear coat is peeling and the guy i bought the car from promise me a cf hood and when i got it decide to put it on cuz i didnt like the clearcoat peeling off the stock hood and save some weight.
maybe i should paint it? how much? and how will it look? stock? thanks for the comments
btw i dont plan on putting any kit on it, maybe 97 conversion

If you plan to keep it, I would refinish it and paint it.
