I vote evo hood, just please for the sake of god don't take the ricer route and leave it unpainted...The wings west car looks so nice with the painted evo hood...But get what you like!

vis oem, save your money and leave it unpainted. I like the black on yellow look.
 
I say no to evo hood..I dunno, not my thing, I actually like that scoop hood that one company makes..I forget the name...edit: SLP

Dont paint the hood, you bought a CF hood, show it off. Its not a rice look, and it cracks me up how everyone thinks that. I personally think its a waste to paint the hood, as you TAKE AWAY from one of the most pimp looking things evar, for a car. :D
 
If you think carbon fiber hoods were made for the look, think again. Carbon fiber was made to be a lightweight, yet pretty strong material. People put the hoods on their cars to save weight. It was the thinking of ricers and racecars that couldn't add the small weight of paint that came up with the idea of not painting it. When you see a car with a black paintjob, and one door that;s red (a dorr from another color of that car was put on temporarily) do you think that looks cool?

no but i think cf hood looks good, i guess its cause i've seen it a couple of times...i dont think its rice, if its not weaved then painting it would be best, but if its weaved i think showing it off bares no shame
 
mark, can u find a link to like an online catalog? i cant find SLP (there is SLP online, cant find it there)
 
OEM, so smooth.... now if they only made an EVO VII style hood, (with out the bumps around the vents) I'd like it better

ill post pics when its on!!
 
b sure to post a lot of pics. your protege seems unique, im sure everyone would like to see it.
 
I'm not a big fan of trying to make your car look like something else. Go for the OEM style.

(I especially hate it when people mold BMW 3-series tail lamps into their Civics!!!!)
