That looks good too, I thought about doing it like that, I almost did. But I decided to run the paint line about 3/4 of an inch inside the body line on the hood and have the paint go all the way to the bottom, so from the front of the car it blends into the grill. Yours look really good. I like it.

That reminds me of the paintjob I had done on my A4's VIS carbon fiber hood. Unfortunately its short lifespan was destroyed by a drunk driver this january.

I like it I have often thought about doing that to my Evo to give it a two tone paint job and carry it over the roof and onto the trunk, maybe GG with my BBY

Its not really noticeable in the pictures I took but the roof was painted to match the carbon fiber hood on my silver evo. The carbon trunk will be custom painted as well as carbon fenders.

+1, would painting your hood black, instead of buying a cf one be cheaper?

Thanks. Its a Reiger RS4 front end with RS4 grill.

It looked even better just before the drunk driver hit me. I had clear e-code headlights, FMIC, projector fogs, and more.

My side skirts were sitting in my garage waiting for installation along with a FMIC, GT28RS turbo, manifold, and injectors.

Here is what happened to my poor car. http://www.kalionzes.com/audios/1.jpg

I got knocked out cold, sustained a concussion, separated my right knee, tore my MCL, and spent the night in the hospital. luckily the cops caught the guy as he tried to flee the scene some two blocks away. Felony hit and run and felony DUI.
