right now, I have a CF hood on the car with aerocatch hood pins and the car look nice and shit. but the car is not in one color, i am going for the blue and black theme.
I painted my chrome window trim and mirrors matte black semi gloss finish, USP door blades same paint. S4 rear valanve matte black.

but i broke my s4 bumper stripe today, wtf.

should I keep the CF hood unpainted(cuz i dont want to paint it) or put back up the stock hood with all that extra weight althought it's only like 15lbs.

second one, I got my B5 S4 front calipers, stoptech SS lines, Axxis pads, RBF600 fluid, adam's rotors. should I touch my rear brake lines? right now I only have rear rotors but nothing else. I am thinking of doing the front only this time, is that ok?

Today's pictures, the car is not done yet!!!

I personally would want to paint the hood. That's just my opinion, I think it looks better on our cars unless your car is black, but then I would want to fade the paint.

You don't need stainless steel lines in the rear just because you have them in the front. Is it better, probably. Will it hurt anything, no. I was going to do it until I found out the front lines I bought from the classifieds were really rear lines so I was forced to buy new front lines and ended up with both.

I think the hood would look good black. You already have the blackout theme going so leave it. You can always paint later.

Nothing wrong with just front brake upgrade. a ton of people here have that.

yeah, thanks for both of your input. the thing about my CF hood is it is not as black as when i bought it, just typical CF product.

the other noob question i have is, does it matter what side of the car i put my rotors on? one box i got said left on it, makes me wonder

IMHO color match the hood.

coalesce

well is your car painted blue or black? if you don't want to paint the hood, just leave it as is with the CF weave. i'm personally not down with a blue + black theme, but black with CF or blue with CF looks tight. painting the hood isn't that big of a deal, just do it later on if you want, after you're done stressing about it.
