well i guess the easiest response to that is because i liked it that way
while the cf hood looks great on yellow, to me there was something about it just being BAM a black (cf) hood that threw me a bit.... painting the sides yellow brings the fenders and the hood together nicely and just makes it flow more naturally if you ask me. But to each his own
Also from the front i think it gives it a more aggressive look!

Wow I can't believe you did so much body stuff before getting wheels and a drop, but its looking really good. I love the way you did the hood, I think its way better than plain CF. Very sweet man

eh..its alright. i dont really dig many kits for our cars. that car is just a huge gap with blitz sides. and the hood is fine with painted sides..i personally think you painted too much, like too far inward. but its your car. but im sure itll all come together when you get rims. rims change it all.

well that aspect is entirely preferrence as you point out i suppose....
just as a note the distance inward was chosen by the natural body lines of the hood... i felt it would look kind of awkward if the paint line fell short or beyond the body line, thus the reason it is on the body line =)
