Thanks for your guys feedback...I've decided to paint the hood and leave the vents carbon fiber...After looking at the hood, that is way to much carbon fiber for my taste, hope that doesn't offend anyone...There is a line that goes down the corners of the hood next to the vent...I thought of leaving that hole strip carbon fiber as well, but dont know how it would look...So I just told them to paint the hood and leave the vents carbon fiber...Hopefully I'll get the car back this week and put pics up and tell you guys about the fitment...

Thanks
Ryan

Oh yeah, that splitter you sold me is bad ass....I cant wait to see that too...I held it up yesterday under the car and it looked great...You made me change my diffuser to matte black to match the splitter after they just painted it white ...I'm not going to drop it...Those wheels im getting are huge and i dont think i'll need a drop...I've already scraped the bumper once and that not even with the splitter on ....There are alot of dips over here where I live...
