i say get the hood "tinted" where they paint it somehow and the carbon fiber is colored a certain color but you can still see the weave pattern if not paint it all the way.

And here's a close up on Diamond Black - the picture does the metallic finish no justice.




Wow........that looks nice. They must've been referring to another color?

I've got more pictures here: http://poindexter.smugmug.com/gallery/58089/2

There are a few pictures of my old wheels in there, but you'll find the black ones.

You should really talk to Jeff at Evolution Motorsports about Volks - he may know more than Mackin :lol:

Saw your car at Best Buy over the holidays DoingOK, looked good as hell. Had to carry my bag in front of me as i walked to my car lol

As for the hood, I like the painted look.... I also like the painted hood with unpainted vents, but more on on the s2k than the 350z. Maybe still have paint on the vents, but only 1 coat or so, so its pretty transparent and the weave would still show through on the vents.
