need some input!

Ok this is my car


now currenly (although not in the pic) i have stock grill on it...
I want to order either the fiberglass RRM girll and paint it yellow (obviously) or the CF RRM grill
Im leaning towards the fiberglass painted yellow for some reason (price has nothing to do with it)
I just like the way the yellow cuts accross the front ...
anyway what do people think?
thanks

EDIT guess i should mention for those that dont know... my hood is calvin's CF hood, not just painted black

Yah I agree, I like how the yellow comes from the sides of the hood, I think the Yellow Fiberglass would look the best! Go for it!

I dont like that bodykit (unless you have a nice Intercooler in there). But I doesnt really matter what I think bro. As long as you like it. I do like the look of the hood though. Get the Fiberglass grill and paint it yellow. It would look hot. I got the same hood from Dustin at DRC (but I have the CF Grill from VIS for $135). Was thinking of painting the sides like you. But I think I have a trick up my sleeve to make it look even hotter. Keep up the good work.

You gotta admitt. That hood is light as hell. And you can see the heat just come off of the car from the vents. Only down side is that I have to cover the side vent when it rains. But its still worth having it.

hehe ok i appreciate the comments but its kind of getting off topic, right now i just want to know about the girll! Im not at all trying to say this car is a finished product because it is far from... FAR! Rims, spoiler, completely new mesh in bodykit (dont like the cheesy stuff it came with), coilovers, a completely new paint job, and yes the intercooler behind that big bumper... and more, will all be coming
I realize i need a lot of stuff, but im just curious what ppl think about which grill i should get
thanks

I was thinking the same thing Phil. BUT... the more I thought about it ->
Fiberglass + Paint = CF Grille ... I think the price is about equal. If money isnt an option, go for what you like.

I think yellow would look goofy with that CF hood. I say get the CF grill.

And again your car rocks man.
