why do you want pictures of painted carbon fiber hoods? its rediculous if you want to paint over C/F

well your in the wrong section of hoods....if you wanted to paint a hood get a fiberglass hood. they are cheaper and are suppost to get painted. C/F is made to look the way it does.

Yeah, its made the look the way it does..

your car is also made to look the way it does, that dosent mean you cant modify it to change it to how you like it.

its made to be a lightweight material.

C/F is also fiberglass but made in a different form to make it stronger.
