if you have a CF hood, it would look good because it would match

but if not..i think it would look better painted

I for one hate the two-tone look. "JDM/EDM" is overrated

I saw a perfect example yesterday. Black Civic with white lip kit, white mirrors, and a white hood.


Looked like complete ***

I agree with 1st poster if you going to do CF hood soon or plan on getting one in time leave it black it will match it. Either way thought it will look good.

ok I see what you mean the painted looks better but I was thinking leaving it black for money reasons lol. but all in all it looks good plus I would worry about the paint matching is nearly impossible to match paint again I have to replace my hood but around here some insurance companies wont insure you because the cf hoof wont bend it goes right threw the windsheild I am just gonna get a need hood and it painted but the lips look good how much should it cost me for 2 lips adn maybe side skirts plus painted?

and how do the side skirts bolt up or the lip do I have to drill anything or what and if i want them installed how much should it cost just a ballpark?

oh and mill$civic I love the look of your ride it almost looks like mine well I mean mine kinda looks like yours lol
