THINKING ABOUT PAINTING HOOD INSERT WHITE
I have been thinking lately of maybe this winter while the car is in storage here in Wisconsin of painting my Hood Insert white. Kind of a little throw back to the old Orange and White but with a twist. Attached is a picture I edited. What do you all think??

Not a fan, but it's your car so do what makes you happy. If you decide to do it, I would wrap it that way it's always reversible.

I say wrap it too. I think I like the look, but in my opinion, the spoiler should be done as well..

Looks like an unfinished part you just bolted on in white.

If its "carbon fiber" just wrap it. I'd wrap it regardless, vs paint.

A shade of silver or light grey would be more subtle and better compliment the wheels as well as the orange.

From a design perspective, it will look terrible if there's no other white on the car to tie it together. Definitely don't paint it - as others have said - get it vinyl wrapped and see how you like it. That way when you don't like it since it will look out of place, you can undo it.
