With the others on not painting it flat black. I despise you for even thinking to do that to a CG.

Hood gap FTL. It'd just be another part tossed on the car that would likely never get painted.

Always paint your parts before they go on the car. So "Honda" if they aren't.

^ I agree. Although it's much harder to get stuff painted once you toss it on the car. I lost motivation to get stuff painted cuz I'm like "it's already on....why take it off?" If it's off, you get that much more anxious to save and get it painted. I had 4 panels that were different colors for over a year. Finally I spray-bombed the car ~5 times, then left for school and the car stayed home. THEN it got completely stripped and repainted properly. Wait for the right paint, and if you get moar parts, wait to put them on. My $.02.
