hey guys i need your opinion on something, do you guys think that i should keep the blacked out fangs or restore them to the way they were, i just feel that theres to much black in the front and its to busy, but keep in mind that the hood has been painted blue, excluding the ducts in the hood, they were left as CF check one of my earlier posts and u'll see the hood painted, so here are a couple of pics i snapped, what do you guys think?

with hood painted, it will look nice as black

All I can say is WOW and WHY?????

Going to be easier to make that decision when the hood is mounted. IMO, the canards should be paint-matched but the rest will look fine.

id keep it black like in that pict.

Leave fangs black and remove the black side wiskers.

Honestly, I'd remove those front vents...

But for the fangs, instead of painting them, I'd look to get a CF cover. Everything else being CF on the front makes it look out of place just black...

Those front vents are actually practical, pluse it's to late to remove cuz the bumper was cut in order to install them pluse they costed me an arm and a leg to get them so I don't see my self getting ride of them lol

Red__Zed · 04-13-2011, 03:18 PM

I like the idea of a cf cover for them.

whoLEEoh · 04-13-2011, 04:08 PM

why not think about getting the black ontop of the fangs painted..like that piece in the s-tune kit? i think that will even things out

Nitrouz · 04-13-2011, 04:08 PM

I think it's the intake ducts that's making it look busy. Those are the only things out of place imo.

Is this car going to be tracked at all, or was this all purely aesthetics?
