looks good to me? on a bright colored car buy the carbon fiber ss wing and paint the top part the color of your car and leave the underside c/f to match the c/f berger

Poor fitment aside, I think that hood would look KILLER if all of it was painted, except for leave the manta...so it's a carbon fiber manta

why would you not paint it?? an un painted CF hood would look like *** (well i think so anyways) but the upside is that all the ricers would think you have the coolest camaro in town

but i agree with spd-kils on leaving the manta un painted

I think the berger looks pretty good myself. I wish it didnt have a gloss finish to it though

This panel would be a nice match to RK Sport's carbon fiber grille, although it's a shame they don't sell it anymore without the RK Sport logo.

I agree; and to my good fortune, fitment wasn't horrible... not perfect, but acceptable.

I have lots, but my laptop nosedived, so if it's not back up and running to provide pics by tomorrow, I'll snap a few new ones...

The one thing about mine that I hate is that the paint shop was clueless... They immediately sanded off the gel coat and then painted on the CF itself... surprise surprise, CF is quite porous, and a million little pin sized dimples formed; took them 4 attempts before I was content, and to my dismay, in the right light, they're still there. Fortunately they don't show up in pictures, even close ups. Stay tuned...
