Certainly looks interesting, but will always look a cheap CF wanabe!? Could always get the roof black aswell which looks part of a theme then? And sort that poor splitter out, looks terrible! :p

I'm with Riko, it looks interesting and a black roof would look well too, I think you would also have to paint part of you bumper black too ie the two silver bits either side of the badge ... just my two cents

no it looks ****, trust me i'm honest and i have pretty good taste...that looks absolutely rubbish

arctic grey and black hardly complement each other as two tone...then theres the fact you've got colour coded bump strips. i mean it wouldnt look so bad if the bonnet wasnt the only black panel...but as it is it looks like you just couldnt be arsed to have it painted. i could go on but i wont other than personally i thin cf bonnet only looks good on these with flash red

change it back immediately please! for your own sake and get the splitter screwed up in the centre as soon as possible cos that just brings the whole car down

With carl on this one, just looks like youve bumped the OE bonnet and put a replacement on and havent had it painted yet.

On the other hand, a carbon bonnet would look good.


And i thought Rogers wants that bonnet back.
