57945, Need some CF hood advice.
Posted by JwadeClipse, Sep-24-03 05:56 PM
I got a 95 gs eclipse with full blitz body kit. It was originally black, but had all but the top part painted white with the body kit. Check out my cardomain page to see it.

Anyways, I am probably going to be ordering a Carbon fiber hood soon, and I wasn't sure what kind I should get.

Should I get the OEM CF hood, the predator, or some other one?

ur car looks sharp.. rather then buying a hood, i would invest in some 97-99 headlights 1st, and maybe in some time work your way to lowering springs.

here is the link for every1

I actually have some eibachs, but took them off because I was scraping all over the place.

And I am actually getting black projector heads for my b-day in a couple weeks.

I am assuming it came back and fucked up his windshield?

yea, his post is in the pits- i think he posted it last week... get pins- i dont have them in the sig pic but they're in now. they're only $15-35. Thats a small price to pay to save your hood, windshield, maybe even your life if it flies up and you crash into something...
