Only way I would say yes to it is if you were going for a specific colorscheme (Black hood/HardTop/Trunk) to get a sort of two-tone look. Even then, it wouldnt look great.

Black hood on a yellow S2000 almost works, but black on silver nope.

Get it and cut it up to make your own vented hood. Paint to match.
