Seen a few scoobs with the Flat matt Black bonnets and boots.

Trying to convince or shut myself up on this look.

carbon fibre is the way to go mr stacey... take it from a style guru such as myself.!!! but why not go the whole lot for a total matt black car looks and stealthy

Allloooo mate

Yeah carbon is nice, but for me its a style that could very easily be seen as chav very soon as the prices as dropping very quickly on carbon fibre parts.

Dont get me wrong i like carbon fibre, but im not keen on buying loads of carbon bits and then have to change them because it is the new chav must have part.

I seen an american DBM car on 22b.com the other day that was due to be painted the same colour as his car but he said he liked the look, and so did i too be honest?

Im not convinced at the minute thats why i was lookin for some pics

Have been thinking of painting my bonnet black too on a 95 STI type RA. Think it might sit right with the black mirrors and black door handles.........

Bonnet needs respraying anyway, shelves in garage collapsed, TD05 from top shelf bounced off the bonnet

The blue and black looks good

Shelves collapsed

I wouldn't do it. When I see cars like that I just think it's the poor mans attempt at carbon fibre. Either that or you are going for the 'taxi' look.

When I pranged my first car, a Vauxhall Chaviler, I was driving around for a while with matt black wings and bonnet until I could afford to get them painted. Could of left them alone, saved a few ££, and looked well wikked in the process.

Doh!

That was my other worry

i would say go for it good to be diffrent i might do it myself yet but just paint the middle of the bonnet black upuntil it drops by the vents mines in the paintshop at the moment so might see what paint they got lying around
