hood/kit combos

Tell me what yall think

Kaminari full kit w/

1. Cerious Performance CF EVO hood or
2. VIS EVO Hood or
3. neither they both suck and I should go with ______________.

I also want a wing of some kind. I like the evo VII wing but so does everyone else...Its a little overplayed i think. I DONT want one of those ricer P.O.S.'s that hang over a foot on either side of the freakin car. I was thinkin about the kaminari one but i thought that might be a little too much kaminari. I'm planning to go all pearl white or a mercedes silver highlighted w/ CF.

I'm open to just about everything, if anyone has any suggestions or advice please let me know...especially about the hood, i honestly dont know which one to go w/ so ill let you guys argue about it until someone makes a mindblowingly definattive point.

happy posting

Im not much for body kits or typical import "flare", but Evomaster you have a really good thing going there. Your car has real clean lines to it, it manages to be subtle but still look original and unique. Id have to say Im a big fan of your setup, although Id personally paint the mesh black.....

Keep up the good work

I would go with carbontrix because they have very nice fiber work and fitment is always good with them...

haha have Kontra make u a cf hood lol

carbontrix is partners with road race so im sure some will go for carbon trix since RRM single handedly almost owns the lancer performance industry and u never hear about them being an *** to customers. i dont have a cf hood...and if i get one ill probably just get an OEM cf hood...maybe the evo6 style hood though i dunno.......oh well

if you're reffering to me then my answer is no fitness issues. the only problem i had was the headlight. as i said i was gonna trade in my headlight with my uncle's ph-spec headlight if anyone could remember. the rest was pain-free. btw, im thinking bout getting new rims. my dad's gonna pay for it, so i dont have problems bout the price. i am thinking bout getting the ENKEI rs5. any suggetions?
