Re: Carbon Fiber

It looked pretty good. Worth a try on small stuffs, but definately not with the bonnet!

I don't understand there so many cars here with painted bonnet and boot for that CF look, who are they fooling?

That's a good idea sk8r, but I kind of think a CF hood with body color headlight covers looks good...maybe it's just me.

Re: Carbon Fiber

painting cf is retarded.

black hoods are pretty cool. i don't consider it "trying" to look like cf. maybe other people do, i dunno.

X2. I think the carbon fiber hoods looks awesome on black cars. But I think they look out of place on all other colors unless the paint is blended in tasefully with the carbon fiber. Thats why I decided to keep my stoch k hood instead of going carbon fiber.

i dont think a REAL CF hood is really for looks atleast they never were, if you really want to squeze speed out of a car you have to do everytihng posible to lighten the car up... just some light weight mods cost more then others... normaly cf comes to mind once all other mods have been exercised on loseing weight (and you have a wad of cash burning threw your pocket lol)
