So why did you decide to paint over your CF hood?

To the Op the hood was about 300 and another 200 to paint it to match .
Why did I paint it , I mean you see the before/after pics right ? It looks way better color matched Imo also its more of a "complete look" rather than a miss match body panel look .

Understood...just don;'t understand why someone would buy a CF hood and then hide it is all. I completely agree with your color matching tho...was just curious. :iono:

buy a cf hood because it is lighter. Paint it because it looks better.

Some people life the cf look, i agree it definitely looks bette color matched with the black paint.

I absolutely love the MI hood.
