Agreed. Spraying it black just looks like youv'e replaced it and can't afford a respray.

Personally i'd do neither, wouldnt paint is black on a non-black car, and wouldnt get a carbon bonnet unless you have a fully stripped car and need it for weight saving, no point on anything else to be honest, if you dont have a stripped car and want a carbon bonnet to save weight, strip the interior and you'll save more weight and save £300-400
