I say do it! (and sell your headlight to me super cheap

On a serious note. I think it would look great with or without the lights...

IMHO, I don't typically like carbon fiber hoods. I think cars look better when all the body panels are one color. Maybe if you painted it and left vents CF, or something as a small accent.

Personally, a CF hood on a ppw is waaay too much contrast. Dont get me wrong, i love carbon fiber and have it all around my Z, but an all CF hood is a little much. IMO, you should paint the hood PPW, but leave the vents in CF.
