    Default Alright IA here's another one of those "I need your opinion threads"

    Alright IA so here is another one of those, " I NEED YOUR OPINION ON HOW MY CAR SHOULD LOOK" thread. lol regardless i like both ways that i have in mind BUT i need a second opinion. this also has to do with whether or not i want to spend the money. Im getting my car painted within the next month and a half and i nee to figure out which option i should go for. ok so im debating on two options. here they are; option 1) get whole car painted besides front lip and buy a cf hood so it will go with it. option 2) just paint whole car including lip. im just at a cross between the two looks. ones clean, ones semi aggressive. im gunna end up doin what i want in the long run, but i guess it wont hurt to hear options. so post em, im not puttin a damn poll up.

    What color will the car be? I assume the lip is black. Also - what color wheels, and what style of wheel. The entire theme of the car should go together - agressive fascia needs to have agressive wheels to match IMO. Need more info.

    PS: You can always leave it black then get it clor-matches later. But going backwards will be tougher (stripping it). Also - it's okay to color match a CF hood like my EF. That whole "fad" is getting a little old when the price of CF came down so much.

    yeah im thinking of just painting my carbon fiber hood, but my car is black so it doesnt contrast that much anyway.

    i think it would look good either way, just look up some pics of a red integra with a painted lip or somethin and decide

    you know everybody on here is gonna tell you to paint it anyway...

    I vote for CF hood and a black lip! I've always liked red cars with CF hoods. Just looks cool to me.
