Hey Phoenix, I'm still up in the air on what to do, paint it or not. Matching Vintage Red isn't so easy, just look at my front bumper! I think I'm gonna be repainting my car eventually.

It must be a VIS hood. It bows up at the center so there is a big gap about 0.5" right in the middle. Every single one I have seen has that problem. Nice CF laying and clear coating but the fitment isn't the greatest.
