Has anybody here had there hood painted? If so, how did it come out? Also, those that live any the Northeast with them. How do they hold up in the cold weather and snow?

 

now if you go to the fuse box and pull out the the 5th fuse then the ...... ......opps wrong thread


yes someone here has done it i know a company does it i just can't remember the name but someone on here with a rosewood color max has one .

 

here's some pics taken today it started sprinkling today and the max is lil dirty but oh well..

 

but thats not painted, that just the CF color you chose from carbon efx:0

actually, I think its wiser to get colored cf rather than having a shop paint over it.

 

painting on CF looks crappy (from wat ive seen) esp on white and black colors, the paint looks wavy and doesnt really look like a stock hood, you can tell somethin is up with it. you have a black max, get a standard CF weave, or a black/black weave which looks darker than the black/gray CF.

 

If done properly, it's not wavy at all. There isn't any difference between the paint on the hood and the the fenders. Just like fiberglass bumpers, if you have a cheap shop do it, it is going to be wavy and messed up. It's all in the prep work.






My wife's Integra has the exact same paint scheme on her hood, and you can't tell the difference between the painted CF and painted fenders.

 

Neel had one on his car. His username is Stillnmax. I'll see if I can find a pic

I'm sorry. I just can't get over how completely *****in' your car is. The more I look at it... That's pretty much as good as it gets.
