Does good quality carbon fiber hold up? I have seen some CF that gets faded by the heat/Sun and starts to lose the shine. Maybe some of the stuff that I have seen on other cars (not 350Zs) were just cheap ebay stuff. Maybe there is some high quality stuff out there that will withstand the elements, but I would personally want a guarantee. IMO, paint the hood, roof and hatch black. CF doesn’t look bad, but I would be sick if I spent that kind of money and it only looked good for two years. I have an 07 Carbon Silver and have been thinking about a black roof. It all comes down to a matter of opinion though. I would like to see pics of the car though (esp. the black grille).

Sell the 20's to someone who owns an SUV, then if your needing a CF hood for the venting. Make sure you paint it to match the car, the 2 tone built from the junk yard look is for the civic guys.

judging by the 20's i will assume your not in for the performance aspect of it so I dont think the cf hood and trunk will be worth the investment. I am just assuming though
although frowned upon by some...if its the look you are going for then might be more economical to cf pattern vinyl wrap the hood and trunk.
