i'm considering getting one.
Can you just explain it to me, do you paint them or are they all the same black colour?
And if so what would it look like with my red car?
i know carbon fibre is lighter but that's about it aha

If you are thinking about painting a composite material bonnet, might as well go for fiber glass. Carbon fiber is really really, really, ridiculously good looking to paint.
CF is left the way it is. Looks great with the sunlight's glare reflection! See that pattern!
