    seriously: paint it. and if youre gonna paint it: might as well get fiberglass.

    exposed carbon fiber is super ricey.

    The only reason you should have a CF hood and the only way it should look... painted to match of course.

    In my book CF hoods go along the same lines as stick on hood scoops....
    2005 Grand Prix...inlays,grill inserts,debadged and tint.
    2007 Suburban...billet grille and bowties, debadged, tint, magnaflow exhaust, slp tips and much more to come!

    Your not the only one. I give who's ever car it is props for having something original, but the hood just doesnt flow with the body lines of the car. Id say the only time you shouldn't paint your carbon fiber hood, is if you have carbon fiber fenders, bumpers, doors, roof, ect...

    you wont find a carbon fiber ws6 hood, they dont exsist. I looked for 3 years, before taking the plunge and started making ws6 hoods.
