I was thinking of getting a carbon fiber hood for my sedan. Color is DP. My wheels are black..Will it look awkward?? When I spoke to Andy at Pro-spec he kind of talked me out of it....

 

Waste of money.

But if you feel like you have to have it 'coz all the kids are doing it, for God sakes, paint it.

 

lol.... good looking out Lekker. All of the kids are doing it now.....Im good.

 

^Well it depends bro. How many sedans in Boston have carbon fiber hoods? I mean I think it would be different. but then again it all depends on what you are trying to achieve your ride. Are you trying to go tuner or VIP?

 

^+1

 

im not even sure what look im going for. At first i was thinking show...Then I saw all of you all so Im thinking a little tuner...Intake/etc. I was at Pro Spec ready to order and they talked me out of it...I dont really see any sedans in boston with carbon fiber though..dang im unsure what I want agaiN

 

Haven't seen a cf hood for a sedan that I like. Also the cf hood will not save you weight since our hoods are light to begin with.

 

1)Your buying it to save weight?

2)You like the way cf looks?

 

Ive always been a fan of the carbon fiber look. I mean i guess saving weight would be a plus right?? I wanted my G to stand out a bit.. All the sedans I see look the same

 

^Do it...get the hood, the trunk and the lip get it crackin bro warm weather is right around the corner!

 

i just ordered my lip...im bout to get my double din too..Ill be right by april 25!

 

i was always a fan of carbon fiber

 

I found a CF hood for 05-06 sedans, they want 500, idk its a bit risky cause I've never seen a sedan with that hood and really concerned about the fitment, maybe ill consider it in a month or two...

 

look the same let me refrase that for u... i no longer have the G35X since i sold it...on Dec., i basically was holding it down for the Sedans in the Bean

Firts G35X in Boston to:

1) Run staggered wheels without pulling fuse
2) Carbon fiber roof wing and oem wing which is rare
3) Custom Molded Honda accord Mugen Front lip
4) Run staggered on coupe 18's on an X'

 

Waste of money...
It won't lighten the car much.
Would look a bit tacky in my humble opinion.
Plus maintaining carbon fiber panels can be a bit of a hassle. I've heard of people having to completely wetsand their carbon fiber panels to get out hazing and discoloration.
