Hey guys,
I have never really been a big fan of carbon fiber hoods until I was walking into school one day and noticed a 7th Generation Civic in the school parking lot with one. I thought it looked awesome, and then after coming to s**t site often I noticed the car on the top of the pages look awesome.
Well anyways, one day when I was away from my car a couple of my friends decided to sit on my hood giving it a few dents. Because of these dents I obviously need to get it fixed, but then aagin why pay the money for a new hood, when I can probably get everything I need for a Carbon Fiber hood cheaper.
So lately I have been considering getting one, and my dad said it would look cool. I have a 2000 Civic EX that is White like the one above. I want your guys opinion however on the hood. Should I go Carbon Fiber or should I just stay with the OEM one? Im going to admit my car looks a little "ricey" so I honestly think a Carbon Fiber hood would look a little less ricey since it's mainly big in Japan. Is this making any sense? I hope so...
Well I have been looking at the hoods and now I want you opinion on what brand I should get, even though I have been gearing more for VIS. Also what types are the best, and well I don't know just ANY information would be helpful. I have been most interested in the Xtreme GT style made by VIS, and I was wanting to know price ranges, ect. But any thoughts, constructive critism, or information would be greatly apperciated.
Thanks,
