CF hoods look great on any color car IMO. I love unpainted CF on white, blue and red cars. I just saw a pic of an Si like mine with a CF hood and it looked sick.
I guess my point is, if you're going to spend the money why weigh it down even if it is only an extra few pounds of paint/clearcoat/wax, etc.

Doesn't matter if it's non lead based. I'd be putting at least three coats on, clear coat it, and wax it. Even if it adds just 3 pounds of extra weight, whats the point?

i think Cf hoods look better on black cars if you are not going to paint them
