I will have other carbon fiber parts!!

but I want to know how should I paint it though...

I was thinking about the lower part of the body black
(front lip, side skirt, bottom of rear bumper)

Going to look sort of JDM if you do it like that....

My suggestions.....

CF Front Hood O.K.
A-Pillar Black
Rear Lid CF is possible or black
Front Lip (if optioned CF or Black maybe)
Mirrors CF is a must
Side Vents Blk or CF even better....

I wouldn't tone out the rocker panels or complete bumpers though.

-Eli

which part is the A pillar??

so leave the rocker silver?

or just keep the cf hood, the mirror, and vents
and paint the front lip black to match cf black

and thats it... simple and plain

I don't know about that as much. It also has a lot to do with the lines of the kit that you are using. Is there even an extra lip at the bottom of the front bumper or is it all one piece?

its all one piece but it will have a lip!!

With the right wheels, it will look good with the CF Hood, Mirrors, and Trunk.

that have same color as my car and with a
