How hard os it to paint a carbon fiber hood? nobody I know has any experiance with this. I want to paint my CF hood cuz it just looks sooo ugly on my red celi. I'm thinking I could just sand the hood and hope for the best.

you can paint a cf hood, i dont know if you can paint it light enough to let you see the fibers under the paint, but you could try, and yea Arizona Red, make that picture smaller, like half that size, you car looks good, but its a pain for everyone to scroll over to see what each other wrote.

yeah you can, ive seen it on alot of show cars. just pick up any car mag and you will see a car with carbon hood and its partialy painted like down the sides or in the middle so it follows the headlights back. its not hard just they will prep it the same and then paint it.


but why buy a $400 CF hood if you dont like it??
