Adding the clear just adds life to the hood. Anything exposed to the sun will eventually fade. My car is garage kept which helps even more. The clear also adds that additional shine that you wont get on a regular carbon fiber hood. I do alot of shows so I want it as shiny as possible!

CF on black looks nice. What I like is you think the hood is black and then when your there, your like oh shit, it's CF!!! OEM would let best if you want that effect. The GT Extreme (like mine) is clearly after market.

They make it all, but you don't want to over do the CF.
