Need your suggestions fellow EP brotha's...

Should I paint the hood or not? I'm getting the front bumper lenses filled and repainted so I might as well do the hood at the same time if I decide to. Here are some pics to help out....

Thanks fellas and thanks especially to psylovibe for taking the time to change the color of my hood. :D

[square]

i vote leave it. black looks good on silver.

[Adubb]

Leave it alone! Looks great how it is!:D

[ATRIOT]

Leave the hood carbon and paint your Mugen grill black.

[BlackSi613nin]

id say leave it! it really works nice with the c/f mugen wing... or you could paint the mugen grill black, and then paint the hood silver on the sides, kinda like the greddy si from Super streat

[psylovibe]

paint it! It looks a lot cleaner.

[STP03BlueSI]

Leave it!:D

[kungfumonkeyb0y]

Hey Paul, its Fred - I say paint it! BTW, you get info for those volks?

[teejoh]

...c/f hoods for our EP3s are more show than go (OEM hood is crazy light IMO)so keep it as is for its intended purpose "SHOW";) and plus it looks good as is.

[dchu]

I have to agree with teejoh. The black mugen sounds interesting too. What about paint the foglight bezels silver? You seem pretty good at photoshopping. I want to see what it looks like. :D

[Grookes]

Is the hood actually carbon fiber? If so, I vote leave it and paint the grill. If it's just a black hood, paint it. I haven't voted yet...

[RiCeCoOkEr1280]

Thanks for all the replies fellas... I actually didn't do the chop.... psylovibe did and again I thank him... as far as the hood, yes it is carbon fiber... i don't think i'm gonna repaint that grill... i like the way it is... as far as the hood, still debating...

[PAPITUYO326]

[HARRY POTTER]

[Loudpedal]

The hood looks shit hot as it is...a really nice EP.

[Civicvtec1ps]

Leave it.

[siver-SI]

Leave it man it looks so sweet as is.

[Adubb]

Hey, if you want a silver hood.. i'll give you mine! HEHEHE.. i'll gladly take that c/f hood off ur hands!!!

[Rey]

I would leave the hood like it is until it starts to fade and look nasty. Then I would get it painted.

voted now. leave it.

[taffeta_wht_si]

Leave it man, Looks better black

[Mugen Power]

Paint it. I'm starting to dislike the whole bare CF thing. But I can still understand why people would want to leave it unpainted. :cool:

[civicSIracer]

well..

i say leave the hood alone... or if you want it silver, put the stocker on and sell the CF... dont paint the CF. ..

[djsolution]

Paint it.





















No wait! I meant leave it! Leave it!

[02SiFoLife]
