Hey guys so I've been rocking my eBay simoco hood for a while , I've been up in the air about keeping it since the fitment was not the best .
So after a lot of adjustment I finally got it to a acceptable fitment for me , still not perfect
The hood has been spray can'd until now and since I've plan on keeping it I want to paint it professionaly but not sure if I should go factory paint color (onyx black?) Or do a stain black
I really like the satin because it kinda breaks up the car Lil bit and adds some "spice" to it but I've just picked up a carbon fiber sail panel and plan on doing a carbon targa as well
Now not sure if the satin and carbon will flow together ?
Pls give me your opinions

Car looks awesome. I would paint the hood to match the rest of the car. If you wanted to make it look diffrent you could paint the cowl satin. What's the specs on the wheel and tire size.

Onyx black, and possibly a satin black or silver stripe on the side of the cowl.

Gloss Black to match. Anything else would look unfinished.

I ended up going satin since I already had all the supplies and figured I can always redo it if I don't like it
I'll post some pics in a few, as soon as i figure out how to from my phone
