Paint the calipers red to match the lugs. Just a suggestion.

Just a quick question. I was going to use radiator paint to paint my intercooler but what did you use, and how is it holding up. Car looks good though.

I think a Cwest Type N front bumper wouild complete the look. For some reason the front bumper w/ just a lip seems like it's lacking something.

Looks good though.

For the love of god...what's with people not painting their hoods? All because it's carbon fiber OMGZ!!!! Paint it man. You've got a great looking car...that unpainted hood is an eyesore on an otherwise excellently executed modding spree. The rear pieces need paint as well, simply because neither your sides or front splitter is exposed CF, and it just looks out of place.

My tip...leave the inner wall of the vents unpainted so everyone can still see your precious carbon fiber.

just leaving the rears unpainted seems kinda off...if you don't piant the hood, i would at least paint the rears.
