Default *Pics* Red Candy Coated Carber Fiber Hood

Well I had a Carbon Creations hood that had yellowing so I decided to have my body shop coat it candy red.

The hood tuned out awsome !

From some angles it looks red other angles it looks black.

Opinions and comments are welcome .

Pics are below.

Now you need to candy the lower filler, your rear wing center, and get a large sheet of CF candied to fill the center of your roof to connect it all together.

That looks nice, you should paint the handles black to match your rims.
