New grill and eyelids on need opinions
Hey guys and gals, I just put on my "type-r" upper grill and "c/f" eye lids, the reason for the quotes is because both those descriptions are bs but whateve, and it look pritty good, but I dont know how to go now w/ the look of my car, the two lanes im debating on are...
Style one: keep the upper grill black, get a c/f hood, paint the sholders of the hood silver and paint the second set of eyelids I have silver, tint the headlights black and put on my oem nightshaded tail lights....
Style two: paint the upper grill silver, put my lower grill back on (silver mesh, check the website for old pics in my sig) get a mugen style front lip and type-r sideskirts, and a new rear bumper (my rear is kinda f'ed up due to a run in w/ a 2x4 falling off a truck
) and way down the road getting a VIS platinum c/f hood ( the platinum line is a silver c/f)
Just lookin for some thoughts... THANKS!

I speak from experiance on that one, lol.

Rep Power: 0 I think the black with a cf hood would look sick. Maybe because thats what I have, but who cares. Whatever you think looks good. DUDE, Just noticed your in Hampshire. I live in Huntley. My P's live right off of 20 and harmony road. Hit me up. Maybe we can hookup and cruise some time.

Rep Power: 303 Yeah, JWalker, you're a moron.
Anyway, I say to either keep it all black and get a CF hood, ot paint it like diskreet's. If you get the CF hood, don't put the silver trim on the front of it, keep it all CF.
