Painted carbon fiber
 
What's up everyone.
Sometime in the near future I'm thinking of getting a carbon fiber hood with vents. I want to paint it the same color as the car.

I want to see how the carbon fiber layers will look if it's painted.

Does anyone have this setup already?

Please post any pictures, and opinions.

Thanks.

Moved to the correct section.

Its pretty simple. If you're color matching it to the car, then the hood gets scuffed and primed and painted like any other panel. If its a lower quality carbon hood, then the epoxy (and everything above it, ie paint) may map out and leave a slight weave texture.

I'll be going with a carbon fiber hood from Seibon.
