Default New Carbon Fiber Engine cover vs. Painted cover and accesories

I have covered every hose I could get to. Wrapped every wire I could see and have the battery, fluid and engine cover painted. But then I bought A Carbon Fiber Cover(and have a Chrome Z emblem coming for it) and black battery and fluid cover. What do you think is the bolder look. And does anyone else have pics of there covers. I have more pics on the signature line . New Carbon Fiber Engine cover  vs.  Painted cover and accesories-all-car-pics-017.jpg

if your going for the bolder look the painted engine cover > carbon. imo i think the carbon looks better but doesnt flow too well with all the red

Its candy apple red. I know it looks like orange, and thats cause I have a cheap 60 dollar digital camera. I tried to get the pics to come out better. But yea I have 3 different chrome emblems coming so Im excited to see which one looks better.

I will definately. I will post a pick of a chrome emblem I used on my sub box. You will have to zoom in to see it. (and the pic has nothing to do with this thread.)New Carbon Fiber Engine cover  vs.  Painted cover and accesories-s6300069.jpg

the Candy is pretty bold. I like the C/F and it seems to flow with everything.

must say though Id love to see the expression on a cops face if you ever get asked to pop the hood. . . youd have a lot of explaining to do.
