IF you do it, go with the stock look, not the Invader.

if you're going with a new hood, go with the stock look.

i'd say leave it the same.

White / Carbon contrast is one of the most appealing styles to me. The way your car looks, it's got a real show appeal so I would probably go with the invader style IF I was showing it. If it's just my DD i'd probably go with the stock style (i voted stock style btw)

i vote keep it the way it is, if i were getting one id get the oem style. but you're personal tastes show that the invader might be more you. so my vote is i think you should get the invader even though i dont like the way it looks at all.

With all of the custom work you have done to the outside I would go with the Invader hood. I think that it would look good.

Definately get the invader, I cant wait until I can afford one

Invader hood would look hot. by the way is it necessary to have those hood pins on?

When the CF hood time comes.....Im with prodigy and I am getting the invader for sure.

BTW you car and the bike look good Prodigy.

I think it would look good, because your grill isnt too big to make the hood scoop look out of place. I think they would work well together. There for i say go for the invader.

stock looks much better. if you paint it the same color as the car it may look good

I guess if your plan is to show the car, then a CF hood may be a good addition, but I'm not much of a fan actually. One thing with adding the CF hood would be that you would then have to pick up a 2nd set of eyelids (CF) to make it all match. Stock looks better IMO.

on your car, the invader, like was said cuz you have the show look working for you. i have OEM style cuz i wanted subtle differences. but look up old pics of Kloogys car, you can see the white/CF contrast.

what if i did what Mark did to his hood, and paint the sides of the invader hood body color? like this:




this way i can keep my eyelids the way they are because they would flow with the paint.

what dou guys think?

Mark's hood is fuking sweet looking. I have already asked around with a few different body shops about doing exactly what Mark had done to his hood.

No.

Pearl if you get the invader hood then yes paint it

TenetMusic

i like it the way it is but if your gonna get the carbon fiber go with factory...

Built2prfctn

i say **** the invader

nyautostyle

if you were to paint it, i would go for the invader. I think im gonna get the CF stock hood myself this summer, but im itching toward the invader.

hmmmm so far i think that if i do get the Invader than i will def paint the sides. Im leaning towards either the Invader or keeping it the way it is

I am surprised to be typing this, but with your kit I would say go with the invader. The only way I would ever paint the sides like mark would be if you intend to continuel that look thru a CF trunk. just my $.02

Since your car is so aggresive I would say the "invader" cf hood might compliment it nicer.
