If your hood was a J's/MG/Mugen/Spoon then it would look good but with that hood i like the before carbon fiber look better.

 

looks terrible... you could have left the inside vents unpainted carbon, now it just looks like two landing strips.

 

They are unpainted smart ass

 

i think what he meant was to leave ONLY the downward folds in the vents carbon and paint the rest.

 

^+1 That would look much better.

I think it doesn't look all that great the way it is now.

 

The exposed CF looks kinda funky just laying there like that. I can see what style you were aiming for, but I don't think that look could be pulled off on that particular hood...IMO, that paint scheme usually looks good on the Mugen/J's Type-V hood. Though if you like it, then it's all that matters.

 

Oh ok I got what your saying now. my bad

 

What hood is that btw?

 

Seibon?




definitely not Top Secret

 

The back edges closest to the windshield should run more parallel to the hood line. The way they are right now just ruins the fluidness of the cars lines.

Recommend you paint the remaining CF....
