I really love the way carbon fiber looks, as you may be able to tell based off how much I have all around my car already before this hood. However I can see what you are saying, and getting the hood paint match would be a really clean *OEM+* look. Thanks so much for watching and supporting 🤝💙
Hey brother! Of all people I know you and all the other guys know how badly I wanted an 86 all those years growing up. I’m super blessed and thankful to finally have mine after all this time, and all the stuff I’ve had the privilege of adding and doing with it. Thanks for always showing me support on what I love doing, and always being there for me bro. Love yah dawg 🤝💙
If possible, I would vinyl wrap the part where you want to paint over the carbon fiber. Just in case you change your mind in future. Looks badass either way.
That would be a good idea as well, however I don’t know if I’d be able to find something close enough to the color of my car. If I could, that would be a really affordable way of doing that instead of having it be painted. Either way I think having the front match the color of the car would be a nice clean look. Thanks so much for watching, and for the suggestion as well! I will definitely keep that in mind 💪
@thealternativefactor6694 yeah that’s the only factor on why I wouldn’t go that route. If I can find something that matches up i definitely would though.
Haha we made it!!! On a real note, I am super blessed and thankful, the family, myself, the house and all the cars made it out good. Some of the roads near by flooded, and was without power for a day or so but everything else was pretty good still. I appreciate your concern and for showing love, means so much to me👏💙
Bro I am in love with how this looks! Like I said I the video I want to paint match the front of the hood, I think it would be such a nice look. Thanks so much for watching, and showing love as usual on the vids. Means a lot to me brother 👏💙
For real! I would like to get a set of side skirts first and then take the front lip, side skirts, and hood off the car and have them paint matched to Neptune blue. That probably wouldn’t be for alittle while though, just something I’ve been wanting to do.
Definitely ties nicely with all the other carbon accents I have around the car, and you know me I LOVE carbon fiber. I think a carbon trunk in the future would go along really well with nicely with this hood 👀
Hey brother! I remember you always commenting and showing me and the 86 so much love all this time. Can’t thank you enough for the love and support. Can’t wait to see how far we can take it 🤝💙
I also have a neptune blue GR86 and have been thinking about getting the same carbon fiber hood and white wheels. Looks great! I also like how yours looks with the front splitter too.
Hey Tony, Awesome to hear you also own a Neptune blue GR86. They are such awesome cars. I definitely think you should get a carbon hood, makes the whole front of the car super aggressive looking. White wheels are my favorite, they stand out so much on any color. The only downside with those is that they get alittle dirty from all the brake dust, but it is so worth it. Thanks so much for watching, and showing support on the video fam 🤝💙
I know right! The only other piece I feel like I’m still missing is a carbon fiber trunk for the rear. Honestly In love with the way the car is looking. Thank you so much for the kind words and support 🤝💙
I really appreciate that! The weather has been pretty intense with the recent hurricane that came through. Thankfully eventually is still rather fine In my area. I plan to paint matched it sometime for sure in the future. Maybe once I get a set of side skirts first and then paint those the front lip and the hood all together.
Thank you for the kind words, I think it goes along amazingly with all the other carbon fiber accents I already have on the car. As for the glare that you mentioned, I don’t seem to notice it at all whenever I’m driving around with the new hood. I will make sure to post more videos and photos of how it looks soon that way you can get a better look at it. I was limited on how much time I had filming this video because of the recent hurricane that just came through my area.
Yo hows everything G? Are you near FL? I was planning to go to Sebring INT raceway and wanted to see if we could track day together. Awesome positive content like always bro 🔥🔥❤️❤️
Heh fam, I actually live out in Tampa, Florida. I would really love to go out to another track day at Sebring, it was such an amazing time. To be honest I would want to get a new set of tires and brakes before going back out there. Maybe if I end up doing that I can try and come out with you when you go. Thanks for watching brother, means a lot to me 🤝💙
Definitely! I haven’t done to much research yet on which ones to look into but I feel like it would help out so much the next time I try to track the car. Yeah you could always shoot me a DM on Instagram, I try to respond whenever I can.
Hey dude! To be quite honest with you I’m not to sure, I’ve never changed the coolant out myself on this car. I will try and find that out and i will let you know. Thanks so much for watching 🤝💙
If you are referring to the “livery” I added onto the car. Tbh I’m not sure how long I even plan on keeping those on the car. Maybe another few videos or so and then I’ll end up taking them all off the car. They have held up great so far, been in a couple rain storms and still holding up good.
Hey brother! Thanks so much for the kind words. I absolutely love how the new hood looks as well. As for where I got it from, it’s from the company Extreme Online Store. I actually put the link to this exact hood in the description of the video in case you are interested in getting one for yourself as well. I hope this could help answer your question, thanks so much for watching 🤝💙
Hey fam, that’s actually a good question. I’m still in school so I have college classes Tuesday and Thursdays. I work at a car wash business near my home, doesn’t pay the greatest. However I just want to do something revolving around cars, cause that’s what I enjoy. I was thinking of looking into getting into PRS, but it’s just so hard with my current schedule to work a job like that.
For real! I feel like those would go along amazingly with all the other carbon fiber accents and pieces I have already installed on the 86. I was also thinking maybe a carbon fiber trunk in the future as well. Thanks so much for watching the video and showing support on it and for the suggestions. It truly means a lot to me 💙🤝
I’ve never been a fan of exposed carbon fiber parts like hoods or trunks. 5:09 I think that would make it look OEM plus 👍🏽

Loved this video
I can’t believe how far this car has come I remember you talking about how you wanted this car for so long and now look at you… congrats man I’m glad
Thanks so much for watching! Happy to hear you enjoyed the video. I’ll try to make more install videos like this in the future 💪

@@Justinackerman_ Got it. That's a tough color to color match with vinyl.
@thealternativefactor6694 yeah that’s the only factor on why I wouldn’t go that route. If I can find something that matches up i definitely would though.
yay!!!!! you're alive!! 😍😍😍😘😘😘

Looks insane😩🔥
Can’t get over how amazing it looks. Got so much more planned for the car 👀
looks so good bro! W mod🤙🤙

@@Justinackerman_ of course bro. the half paint matched hood would be tufff🔥🔥
For real! I would like to get a set of side skirts first and then take the front lip, side skirts, and hood off the car and have them paint matched to Neptune blue. That probably wouldn’t be for alittle while though, just something I’ve been wanting to do.
Looks so good man with all the other stuff!!
Definitely ties nicely with all the other carbon accents I have around the car, and you know me I LOVE carbon fiber. I think a carbon trunk in the future would go along really well with nicely with this hood 👀
@@Justinackerman_ ohh shiit say less
This is my favorite mod that you have done to your car. Great video Justin ❤
Oh for sure!!! I think this is probably one of my favorites as well. Thanks so much for watching, I’m glad you enjoyed the video 💙
Been here since 50 subs. Congrats on the growth man.

Looks good 🔥
Couldn’t agree more with you! Imagine once it is paint matched as well 😍 Thanks so much for watching and showing love and support on the video
That carbon fibre completes the look
I know right! The only other piece I feel like I’m still missing is a carbon fiber trunk for the rear. Honestly In love with the way the car is looking. Thank you so much for the kind words and support 🤝💙
Looks great hope you’re doing good with the crazy weather. You should definitely paint match the hood tbh

Looks good Justin 👍 fits your car, what i think is a very good looking car(love 2have it). But how is the glare,? It looks Shiny in the sun.

@Justinackerman_ that's awesome bro, brakes and wheels are great for the track. Is there any way to keep in touch, if that's ok with you?
Definitely! I haven’t done to much research yet on which ones to look into but I feel like it would help out so much the next time I try to track the car. Yeah you could always shoot me a DM on Instagram, I try to respond whenever I can.
Yep I knew it was gonna be either a carbon trunk or a carbon hood.
I can’t even lie you called it before I even said anything about it 😂 Thanks for watching brother! 🤝💙
Why couldn’t you get hood struts to fit???
Hey I wanted to know what type of coolant do you use?
Hey dude! To be quite honest with you I’m not to sure, I’ve never changed the coolant out myself on this car. I will try and find that out and i will let you know. Thanks so much for watching 🤝💙
How long do you think those decals will last?
If you are referring to the “livery” I added onto the car. Tbh I’m not sure how long I even plan on keeping those on the car. Maybe another few videos or so and then I’ll end up taking them all off the car. They have held up great so far, been in a couple rain storms and still holding up good.
Nice hood , where do you buy it bro?

@@Justinackerman_ thank u bro 🥰
Of course man, glad I could help out 💙
Another solid video, Justin. We released a portable jump starter. Can we invite you to do a review? We've reached out to you for an inquiry.
What do you do for work besides yt?
Hey fam, that’s actually a good question. I’m still in school so I have college classes Tuesday and Thursdays. I work at a car wash business near my home, doesn’t pay the greatest. However I just want to do something revolving around cars, cause that’s what I enjoy.

Now you need a spoiler and some cf fender 🫣
