Mercutio Posted April 8, 2004 Share Posted April 8, 2004 Carbon Creation's White Carbon Hood I like it personally, but its a bit much $$$. Maybe for a birthday present or something, heh. I have a black Civic (sig.) and I think that it might look kinda neat. Got the reverse Panda thing going on. I dunno, I just really can't imagine it, so if someone could photo shop a white hood onto a black car, lol, for starters...anyways, open to suggestions. w00t Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CRG7 Posted April 8, 2004 Share Posted April 8, 2004 it's not white, it's silver i'd have to see one in person. saw a cf hood with the blue weaved in and it looked fake and cheesy.:-/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
optional187 Posted April 8, 2004 Share Posted April 8, 2004 back when i was into rc cars carbon fiber was the thing...light, rigid, and pretty durable. then, to stir up some more sales, a lower profile company released a car in which all the carbon fiber parts were silver. nobody bought it. edit: a silver carbon fiber hood on your totally black car? no way.

carta79 Posted April 8, 2004 Share Posted April 8, 2004 edit: a silver carbon fiber hood on your totally black car? no way. I can't believe he would even think about putting that hood on his car. I'm shocked. To me it looks like you would pay over $650 for a hood that looks like faded carbon fiber. I would recommend a VIS OEM style hood over that hood.

Mercutio Posted April 8, 2004 Author Share Posted April 8, 2004 Cool, thanks guys. I had no idea what to think about this thing. And yes, its silver, heh.:-" Yeah. I wasn't really thinking it would look good on a blakc car now, but maybe a silver car would fit nice, and my friend has a silver 00 civic coupe. SO maybe I'll let him know of it.

optional187 Posted April 8, 2004 Share Posted April 8, 2004 yeah, on a silver car it wouldn't look so bad...but i'd still put a black c/f hood on a silver car. but thats just me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
..SSR.. Posted April 9, 2004 Share Posted April 9, 2004 Carbon fiber isn't for looks. Just paint it to match your car. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mercutio Posted April 9, 2004 Author Share Posted April 9, 2004 This one is for looks. Its a silver CF hood. I was getting some opinins on it merely for its visual basis. I myself would go with regular CF, and paint it should I feel the need. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
optional187 Posted April 9, 2004 Share Posted April 9, 2004 actually...i believe the silver gets rid of heat faster. and, at least on the rc car i was talking about, is a little bit stronger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mercutio Posted April 9, 2004 Author Share Posted April 9, 2004 That would make sense, but if you paint it, than its all the same. I dont think it would cost more to buy a reg. CF hood and paint it silver or white to get the same heat dissipating qualities, as it would to buy that silver hood. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
