Just rear ended someone and need input! Would a OEM black carbon fiber hood look good on the red SC with 97+ bumper. The car is dropped with chrome supra wheels and black front mount intercooler (obviously its turboed for ayone thinking i"m ricing out my car) The last thing I want is for the car to look like a riced out honda. Let me know asap because I already had the shop order the parts! Any pics would help. Couldn't find a red lex with a carbon hood
Thanks
Thanks

^ to break off of what he said, I remember seeing an STi that had a completely painted carbon fiber hood, except for right above the driver's side headlight where it had the "STi" logo unpainted. You could see the carbon fiber through it but the rest of the hood looked stock.

I don't think I would put a CF hood on any other color but MAYBE black but I would have to see a pic of a CF hood on a black car to see how it'd look. I just don't like how CF hoods, etc. look, but if it was not for looks and for a race-built SC to trim as much weight off as possible, then I can understand the need for it.

well everyone, i decided not to go for it. Just because I run the risk of ruining it in the winter (daily driver) and won't be able to get it painted till spring. I'll just make up the 40lbs difference with more boost! Thanks for everyones input, the only nice red car with the CFH was Emerald's car but she had a full body kit and it looked like the weaves were red??? Looked expensive
