Default BBIST carbon fiber vented hood yay or nay?

so x-mas is coming up and I get about 800 bucks in cash, and i need help thinking which way i should go.

1: tires for rims that i got last year and never put on and some new Tattoos, will leave me with no cash left over.

OR

2: BBIST vented hood, will leave me with 170 left.


ahhhhhh i cant think about it.

by the way im doing the rims 1st then the hood, if you look at it rims do a whole lot to a car as far as looks. it would look a bit to ricer for me with the hood and wing and runing on stock wheels.

I remember like 3 months ago i was like, I am never! putting a piece of CF in or outside of my box.. and about 2 weeks ago i bought the CF fuel door applique from sparks toyota.. and i LOVE the way it looks.. now im gonna start saving up to COVER! my car in CF.. i just got a "Self" estimate on all the bBist CF parts (Cf hood, spoiler, fender flares, grab handle for hatch, and the LED blinking mirrors, all in CF, and also the LED tails.. the black ones.. and im gonna have to save up $1,789.00 PLUS shipping for all of it.. to make my entire outside CF, well of course i gotta get the CF x2 i think lip kit... i cant wait this is a project to start on for nxt year... im already saving up i got $648.00 saved up i got $1,141 left, lol... hopefully i get that before nxt years Scikotic Asylum.. so i can roll up there with CF oh yeah, and of course the inside i wanna get the CF headliner CF wrapped dashboard CF wrapped door panels and CF center console LOTS TO DO! LOTS TO DO! lol.. does anyone know if there is an xB out there PLASTERED in CF??? if so I WOULD LOVE to see it, i want to see how it looks so i have "Future" reference on how my box would look :D thanks....

Haha that is awesome man, thanks for the compliments.

The spoiler iss the "VS" style. It is shorter than the VF and it hangs down lower on the sides.

The last CF things I want are The CF Hatch Handle and CF Fenders. Got the CF engine cover on the way also.

Make sure to keep us updated cause CF looks great on a TCM xB!
