    Painted black hoods are sometimes used to minimize the glare from the sun to the driver in car racing like touring cars, etc.

    Others have carbon fiber hoods and prefer not to paint over the carbon fiber.

    carbon look?! well, ther diff. bet. a true carbon hood and a painted ones besides look would be... if you knock it and its lata. Ha ha! Pero true carbon reduces the weight of the car, useful for tuners.

    And to dude Joeverzosa, not all 100hp cars w/ black hood car5bon or not are ricers... a 100hp Suzuki Cappuccino can smoke tuned compacts w/ higher hps. ;)

    I have a black hood on my car but it's not paint or carbon fiber, it's pick up truck bedliner. I got tired of the stone chips on my hood from driving on the freeway and having a hood rougher than sandpaper, so I used bedliner and now I don't have problems with paint chips. People that see it think it's weird but it's functional so I really don't care about their opinion.
