Flat Black with Carbon Fiber
I have a carbon fiber hood and pretty soon I will have a carbon fiber sunroof plug on my crx. I really want to paint it flat black but I'm thinking that it will look sort of shitty with the nice shiny clear coated carbon fiber. Has anyone ever done this or have any picts of what I might be getting myself into?

yeah thats the problem, the hood is already on the car. I don't think i have it in me to paint over a 500 dollar hood. If someone could point me in the right direction for a good fiberglass plug though that would be pretty very helpfull.

You obviously bought both for the look, so paint the rest of the car flat black and keep them c/f
Itll look fine, even if you dont like it, trade your c/f oem for an oem fiberglass and paint that
Ive got a fancy "innvader" hood thats c/f and Im just painting the sucker flat black
My car was just broken into and vandalised, so I dont think c/f is the expensive look Im going for anymore so I picked up 3 quarts of Krylon gloss black
