i think cf hood with OEM kit would look tight. you should get your side mirrors and door handles painted to match your car color too

If your going to get a carbon fiber hood I think a little more aggressive kit would look tight. i would stick to lip kits, but whatever you choose hope it turns out nice

since you are never going to put the car to show, i don't think it will much matter. you may want to find a better way to hang it, but it should be ok.

if you were going to eneter the car in a show, that broken intake mount would never fly. i would remove the arm which is still bolted to the motor, reducing the chance that the intake pipe will bang against the end of the arm. finding a way to reduce the amount the pipe can shake will prevent pulling the pipe from the intake manifold while driving.

Boiler_Room is on a distinguished road
Paint Grill, door handles, mirrors. Remove mud flaps

A lip kit would look TIGHT with a CF hood.

How long ago did you get rims?
