 Kind of an oxymoron there huh....
Dude, do your car how you want, people have opinions and they vary extremely, you're not going to please everybody. I wouldn't buy one though...

I think it will look sick. Congrats on the win. Although it's not really a GOOD deal (aka, still cost over 400.00). But, atleast you got one. I think it looks better than the regual CF hood. If I ever bought one, I would get the cowl hood as well, but I'd be diffrent and have it painted to match the car. Now that would look sick.

I beleive so. There are quite a few people with CF hoods that have painted them. CF is just a woven fibourous resin. A corvette body is resin... helmets are resin..... hockey sticks are CF.....

And don't take it off just because a bunch of jealous CEG'ers say they don't like it.. It's not their car and they aren't paying for your mods.. I think it'll look good, as I've already seen the CF cowl hood on both ScottD & Chris Wong's Silver SVTs.. With the black wheels it'll look damn good..
If you're looking for opinions, and you have the extra $$$, you might look into getting it painted.. I believe Mikey Boy did a photoshop of Stazi's car with his cowl hood painted Silver to match and it looked fuggin' badass!!

I thought the purpose of having a carbon fiber hood was to show off the um... what's that thingamabob called... oh... yeah... the carbon fiber? LOL

Depends on your taste. The REAL people who by CF parts is for the lightness. 16 pound hood versus a god know how heavy steel one.  The fact is, you can't get a steel cowl induction hood.. and some people want it to look "factory". Do a search for a t-red svt with a cowl hood that was painted... inthe pics forumn a month or two ago. He also had milan projectors.
