Damn, your car is soo sexy.

The user, Maxdoogie, has the carbon fiber hood on his sunlit sand 2k GXE. Here is a link to his homepage.

I think Grey Lustre is the best color for a carbon fiber hood with out painting the hood. I say go for it! How much do they cost anyway?

Rob, personally I think that CF hoods look great on Black, Grey and White Maximas. I dislike the way they on other colors a great deal. I think that with Grey and Black the hood just blends in and looks right, and with the White it looks interesting and makes people want to come over and see what it is.

I agree witht the white thing. MaxDoogie's car looks really nice with the CF hood.

Rob, your car definately is hot but you gotta do a custom system!

I am also interested in carbon fiber hood for my ride, one that will replace my stock flawless.

I have it Rob... Its not installed yet but I already know it will look great on my Grey Lustre. Its the perfect color to get the CF hood on w/out compromising the look of the car too much. I need another week or so to get it installed but I'll update my ho,page w/pics...

I think that the only color I would be willing to put a CF hood on is Gray Lustre.
