I think that would look awesome. I think it would look really good if you could leave the whole vent carbon or fade some blue into the vent and leave some carbon showing through. You would definately someone that really, really knows how to paint to pull it off.

yea i have a couple people that i know that could probly pull it off i will be talking to them pretty soon just to get some ideas about how much it is gonna cost. painting may have to be put on hold though as i may be getting something that i really want for cheap and need the money for it rather than paint

Why not just get FRP if you're gonna paint it anyway? Oh and the stock Z hood is already superlight, only reason I would see to upgrade that would be for cooling purposes. You should feel my hood, that thing i an anchor.

Oh here you go Ryan, Forged 18's and they are local too

i got the fenders cheap. and i have a cabon bumper and sideskirts i like the carbon, but i like to see hints of it. i will leave the vent carbon and maybe the very top of the fender but i will be getting a hood and would like to do the 2 tone thing with carbon hatch, a pillar and hood being all carbon. i will probly paint the roof black.

I totally agree with Lance on that one Ryan. If you're going to paint the hood or the bumper just leave it alone altogether. The weight difference between the stock hood, frp, or carbon fiber is so minuscule that you won't be able to notice. I see why you want to paint the fender but you're leaving some of the carbon fiber showing.

If you leave everything on the top CF like you say then that would be ok but not if you're going to paint it.

I personally like the way that sounds. I also don't like to have a completely carbon fiber front bumper when the car is actually blue and you have mix and match pieces all over the place. Keep going with what you've said so far, sounds like she's going to look amazing when you're done.

thanks it just might take me a little while i figure like 500 for the hood and then like 900 for the hatch and then the a and b pillars i dont even know what they cost. so i will do the hood in the next couple months and then work from there
