Haha, if I painted it, then that would defeat the purpose of the carbon fiber hood image

smilez: The hood was 500...the fit is pretty good but the quality is kind of bad. I'll take pictures of it tomorrow and i'll post them to show you what I mean.

lude2k: I reaaaaaaaaaally want the TCII's, and I've waited this long so I might as well wait for them unless my TE37 hook up comes through...&lt;sigh&gt; decisions decisions

Clear those rear indicators!!!
Shame on you!!!

andrewdelvard is English, and like all us UK lads think C/F hoods look like you had to get a new hood from the breakers and haven't got round to painting it yet!

Just cuz of what we are used to I guess!

I love the idea of the C/F hood, but English tastes would lead us to paint it!
YOU know it's there, that is good enough to us!

Just our opinions though, you can do what you want to your cars obviously!

Yeah, I know i need to paint that...haven't done it yet. I was going to get a full bumper replacement, but I might end up molding the mugen sills to the bumper. We'll see what happens...taking the car to the body shop spring break...

Really nice car. I like the kit and spoiler.

This is kind of OT but why does everyone with a Tanabe exhaust put the sticker on their rear bumper? EVERYONE does this. Its kind of funny.

Thanks

I actually tried to take the sticker off, but it was stuck on the bumper pretty well and I haven't gotten back to it. What do you guys think, leave it on or take it off?
