7571, Carbon Fiber hood on Black Eclipse
Posted by Slow99GSDriver, Sep-18-01 01:24 PM
There's a possibility that I will be getting a carbon fiber hood on my car. I have a black eclipse and I don't think the regular black CF hood would look very nice since it's not completely black. I'm thinking about going with the blue CF hood, it's extra $$ but I bet a blue hood on a black car would look badass!

What do you guys think?

Oh, also, where's the best place to purchase a CF hood (quality and lightness)?

I've only checked nopi so far.

I looked into it. I think NOPI is good. I got my front from them. I was thinking of getting blue too. If u get it, can u get some pics up? I would appreciate seeing how it looks.

You could always paint it black to match the car. but a blue carbon fiber would give it just enough tint to stand out I think

The strongest way to block, is never to provoke a blow,
And the cleanest cut is the one withheld."
