Major question like normal Jeremy is - do you like it? It doesn't really matter what everyone else says. Sure it looks good, but you have to bear in mind the other things that might go into your decision. It is going to be a little more expensive painting a carbon fiber hood, and there is no real turning back once you do.

It is your decision to stick with if you choose to. By asking, you probably agree that it looks good but are worried at the same time.
