*form follows function*

Paint the CF hood - it's for weight reduction. You don't want to look like you damaged your original hood and replaced it with a primed hood from a junkyard.

Secondly, keep the spoiler. It's not a wing - we don't drive jets, F1 racecars, or Prototype cars.

Thirdly, I think that it would behoove you to replace the tails with a set of stockers.

I like your car, though, and it will look really good in that colour.

go wingless and put the factory tails back in. paint the cf hood.

yea im going to put the stock tails back in, mabey smoke them a little bit. i do like the looks of c/f but i think it would make the car kinda tacky. im going for a clean look so mabey the c/f will get painted.
