^I agree the paint job on that hood looks hot. Here are some pics of mine from last night. Im awaiting my new front bumper because my veilside ver 1 lip broke and ditching the rear carbon aero for a carbon ms lip. then c-spec fenders i picked up cheap to cover body work cost and cf roof that i have a mold to make. All by next year

Also befor the front lip broke. I have plans for the near future. I just got these picture when i was out trying to get some for another thread

I'm also curious what that front lip is? So simple, but looks good.

For real? Is there info anywhere on how to do it? If it actually looks good like that, it might save my bumper from a few of those scrapes and scratches.... might be too late for that though, lol.
