My car is obviously black. If I picked up a carbon fiber hood, would the finish clash with my gloss black paint job or look good? I am having a difficult time imagining it. Pics would be great if you guys have any that show good detail.

The reason why it's lighter is mostly because it's fiberglass though...the hood is mostly fiberglass with a layer of carbon fiber over the top.  Oh, and that's my amysmojo's car. It looks better in person, when it's actually washed.
