Do you mean color combinations or Carbon fiber hoods or both.

CF hoods aren't that bad, IMO

You should pick your own color, not what other people like, unless you wanted to put pink on your supra and power rangers stickers on it.

If you did that we would all shoutat you.

I think I have seen some pink supras they don't look that bad, not best color choice though.

plastic tree works good, or the little exuast pipes form other kits, the 300 zx pipes work good

Styrene tubing works very well.

Stick a wire through it thats the same diameter as the inside and is easily flexible. Hold it over a candle for about 4 seconds (this you'll need to work out for yourself) then bend it into the shape you want. It takes some effort to get right because you can squash the tubing etc, but it works very well.

Alternately you can use sprue instead and heat it up and do the same.
