Just paint it white at an angle starting from the top left and right like this \ _ /
It will meet at the angled center grill, that looks sick as hell on white.

I would never paint a fresh carbon hood or anything. Carbon hoods are expensive. I know they are to save weight , but you also pay for that badass weave too! If you wanna go white, why not just throw your stock hood on and sell the hood and spend some cash on something else.

I agree with previous posts. Paint the roof black and get a carbon trunk and complete that look out!
