Yeah Ron, ^^^^ what Justin said. That blue trim is a nice touch! Did you do that on the side skirts or front lip too?
I wanted to do a red stripe on my front lip (like on Fahd's car. His may actually be painted on ) but I never found the right red color pin stripe in the right width, so I just dropped that idea for now.

I did the front also, initially had it on the grill surround also but I thought there was too much blue goin on so I removed that. I now just have a thin stripe on the front edge of the front lip.!

btw that hood is so nasty. Mine is almost done. I'm hoping it will be as nice as yours.

1st, congrats on the TRD wing. So sweet that yours gonna be the last ones. Everyone will just have to covet...
If you ever decide to sell, dibs pls!
Got a question hoping you can answer.
Is your TRD hood all one big piece of cf or did they lay separate strips of cf and then line up the weave?
My hood will be ready in a few days. ZachF (JL composites) told me that the creases where the cf folds is a bit darker color than the flat parts due to more resin collecting where the cf folds. Says the only way to eliminate that would be to lay individual panels of cf.
I suspect the "joints" where the cf panels meet would be noticeable ?

The Lexus CF hood looks to be like one piece, if it's not, they did an excellent job making it look like it is
Can't wait to see yours!
