Default Carbon Fiber Hood Painted.
Here are some pics of my new painted cf hood. I hated the hard line look but thanks to manny i saw that it could be blended/faded. So I got it done gonna be my last mod for a long time. Gonna be really busy with work soon.



Enjoy! (if you like cf)

It looks good on the second pic but we need daytime pics. Good concept though.

Looks good, usually see that kind of effect on darker black/dark grey cars.

Nice work! Always good to be original.

off topic:

do you notice any deminishing light output from the blue headlight vinyl overlay?
