help me order grill and hood vents
So while I am awaiting my car I am stocking up on some stuff that I would like to change.
I want to change the grill and hood vents. The car is alpine white on red interior with CF roof. I really like the AW painted color matched grill ![]() but then what do i do for the hood vents and if I do the side vents eventually ? do I get matte black ? gloss black? or CF ? |

The OEM hood vents are already white (except the mesh portion which is matte black like all of the other mesh on the front, rear, and sides of the car). I don't think there is much reason to change the hood vents but I have seen some people do gloss black. If you do white front grills, you should do white side gills. In other words I think the front grill and the side grills should always match. You could do matte black, gloss black, or gloss white. Some people paint all of the mesh on the car gloss black. I think that looks good but it's a lot of effort for a small impact IMO. Good luck and enjoy the new car!
