Celica Forums General Discussion Exterior Whats your opinion on this setup!

I have a silver Celica and the VS body kit im putting on this week. What would it look like if i got the Invador hood and also painted that? I think it would look tight. I don't like the carbon fiber hood look on my car but i would love that hood painted to match my car. Let me know what you think!

weird, anyways, go ahead get it painted, its your car though, but for me, the Carbon Fiber hood looks awesome on a silver celi im getting the Invader hood pretty soon and im not gonna paint it

yea i used to hate the Carbon Fiber look but now i luv it! i would definitely leave the hood unpainted. gotta show off the Carbon Fiber mann!

i agree

Remember your car is a reflection of you so if you like it then that's all that matters
Post some pics when it's done

I would leave the carbon fiber for all to see, but thats just me.

This is prolly a stupid question but on a celly does a Carbon Fiber hood actually do anything? Since the car is front wheel wouldn't it actually lose traction over the front wheels or is the engine enough to keep it grounded?

the difference in weight is probably not enough to really make a difference in traction, especially if you have upgraded rims/tires.

but it does help reduce the overall weight of the car.. and besides, it looks awesome!

I would keep it Carbon Fiber and just go with a theme that matches it...idk about painting it.

i would just want everything to flow, im not all about the flashy carbon fiber. I love how it reflects and everything and its benifits but i would rather have it the same color of the car and i think after you guys see it you will like it.

I'm with these guys. Keep it Carbon Fiber.
Here's a suggestion though. Put it on, see how you like it unpainted. If oyu do not like it, paint it.

hell yeah. i didnt like the carbon fiber look at first, but now i want one. on silver, it looks freakin nice. go carbon fiber!

how bout half carbon fiber, and half painted! j/m

keep it Carbon Fiber! It looks great the way it is!

definatly

i think it would look bad, the brs tuning hood is so much better
