I think it would look good painted - hint hint it would be nice if someone photoshopped Brian's car with his hood white for referance.

Done




Making one with a paint fade for the CF would be a little trickier

Paint it. The CF look is WAY over done and so 2007.

Thanks guys!

Aaron, thanks for the photoshop! I really like it.

I'm not sure if I can swing the CF accents though, but I will check with the paint shop and find out how much something like that would cost.

I'm still not sure exactly what I'm going to do yet. I did take the extra weight into consideration.

I think if you paint it you need to leave some CF just so it looks likwe you top with the two tone.

I like - and it may look good with black "H"'s - that would bring the black from your HT in.
