seems odd to have just hood and front fenders...you started something now you need to finish it. Its not gonna look right unless you finish the car in CF

I thought it looked cool that way. I get pretty tired of hearing about painting carbon fiber. A few years ago, everyone hated on carbon fiber hoods and trunks/hatches, now its fenders and doors. Haters will hate, and players will participate.

Looks great dude. I like the direction you are going with this. What are you doing to protect the carbon finish? Did you clear coat it?

So by that statement we all know you only did it for the looks of cf and not weight savings. (not that its a bad thing )Either do the whole car in cf or paint it or do some sort of fade. Leaving it liek that looks just doesn't look right imho. Wheels are sick though. gl with the build. sometimes a little means a lot.
