Default Advice on Carbon Fibre Bonnet needed

I have a 02 Bugeye in blue/black mica GX (for those who may not know it is basically black).
I have been told i cannot modify a scoop onto it because the "GX bonnet does not cater for this" so i will have to buy a whole bonnet. Fine. I can purchase a Carbon Fibre Bonnet for 425pounds.

In your opinion how would this look on the car bearing in mind the shade of the carbon fibre bonnet will be slightly different???? I was also planning to add a Lester WRC Bonnet Vent (painted in blue/black mica)

http://www.drmotorsport.co.uk/MY-01%...net%20Vent.JPG to the CF bonnet. So what i will have is a blue/black mica car, CF Bonnet with a blue/black vent fitted into it? what ya think? am i being too fussy?

My other option is to purchase a WRC Style FRP Racing Bonnet with WRC STI Style Bonnet Scoop ( 01 - 02 Subaru Impreza ) unpainted for 155pounds (clearance). I think this is FibreGlass but can paint it all in same color as car

can you experts please advise me!

Why not just stick a second hand one on? ...you might even be lucky & get it ready painted in the right colour ...try Grade A Subaru
