Should i paint my TS hood?
alright my carbon fiber TS hood (the one with vents in hood) should be here in a couple days. I have a ivory pearl g37, i was thinking of painting the whole hood ivory pearl but leave the vents carbon fiber. OR should i just paint the whole thing? what do you guys think? this is how the car looks now from a couple days ago.

i would say paint most of it and leave the vents CF
tats a sick theme!! or the middle part of the hood CF and the sides painted. The CF parts will look like a V.

I think painted with the vent CF is definitely the way I would go.

I prefer the mixed look as well. It really sets off the CF....
