The roof would like nice, but not the hood and trunk.

Here is an example of something a little like that:

See whats nice about the Evolve S40 is that they chose a color that compliments the silver. It not too dark, and it breaks up the lines of the car, giving it more of an aggressive look. There new design has the paint continue down the front bumper. The style closely resembles that of the Evo Prototype X, the Audi A6, A8's, and the new Volkswagen GTi's.

I must say that when you do a paint scheme like this on an Evo, it makes the car look much thinner in shape.

werd on that. I don't have any cf or body mods right now. Just suspension and some under the hood goods.

I'm not sure what direction to go myself, maybe a cf lip, jdm IX rear bumper, some wheels & lots more under the hood
