Im trying to convinve my dad to buy me a old honda prelude . The car is red but the carbon fiber hood is black. My dad is convinced that the hood should be the same color as the car and because of this, he wont buy the car. I said that he is wrong and thats just how the hood should be. Whos right?

Your are right I dont think i have ever seen a carbon fiber hood that is the same color as a car. Most carbon fiber is always black and kinda grey. So you are right.

im pretty sure you can buy colored Carbon fibre,but it may still look a little off.
