Gauging interest on getting a Carbon fiber hood for our cars!

RSM Racing has a guy that can do custom jobbies.
Once a mold is made, we too can have hoods!!!

Now, a verbal quote was $700 CDN which is pretty good.

If ya think you're interested, sign up. So far, there's no commitment :)

Is it paintable or not?

why would you want to paint a real carbon fiber hood lol

So it wouldn't look too ricey....

may be interested, depends on what kind of style carbon fiber hood, the under bracing, total weight difference, colored carbon/kevlar hoods be available, and how much is $700 cdn, i don't know the conversion rate....

So it wouldn't look too ricey.... [/b][/quote]
I think it's only "ricey" if you have a CF hood and your car is still a slow piece of crap because you're just fakin the funk. A CF hood is a "performance" mod, and any nutcase who buys one just for the sole purpose that it's CF and loox cool is a complete ass..................IMO

I'd paint a real carbon fiber hood in a second. If there were a HUGE weight difference, I'd buy one and paint it to match the rest of the car..... B)

Because a black hood on any other color of car is mother bunnyin ugly

^^Actually, I beg to differ. With CF having that black/gray-ish look to it, on a black car, it would almost seem as though the hood was ashy. And even though you'll know it's a CF hood, it'd still look off-color. In fact, a black car is the only color that i would say that you "should" paint the hood to match. But take a CF hood with a red or white car, some carbon or gunmetal shoes, and dark tint, you got yourself a nice looking car.

^ I wasn't meaning to imply that a CF hood looks good unpainted on a black car, but just that if you take a hood of a black car and stick it on any other color it looks like crap. Just as CF being a different color than the rest of your car (even if its black) looks like you are piecing together a car out of the junkyard.

^^I got what you're saying now, and i've actually seen some jackasses with black hoods on their car. Ugliest crap ever. But i guess we're just of two different minds on the CF hood. Carbon fiber makes a statement all it's own. And I'm not talking about guys who buy it to dress up their engine bays and interior. To me, putting CF hood on a barely modded car is an like ahoe who has "Turbo-kazoo" exhaust tips when they're engine is NA. Like i said uptop, a CF hood is a performance mod, that's why i wouldn't even consider getting one until my car was truly race worthy. Then I would get a CF hood AND a spoiler in keeping with my car's true purpose, and if a chump thinks i'm flossin my CF just to be flossin, then i'll be more than happy to prove them wrong.

Carbon Fiber Hoods are a privilege, not a right
:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

^Lol.. yeah, I saw a white lude here with a painted black hood. Looked sooo ghey.

I think it was Yiddishbbq though that had a CF hood that was colour matched to his ruby red car, but it was transparent so you could still see the fibres. I really liked the look of his, and would deffinately go for something like that.

Yeah, I am not sure if I would paint mine. I think it would look good on a silver car unpainted

Well, it all depends on the person rite?
Some will use it to lighten, some will do it for show.
In any event, they are a car enthusiast :thumbsup:
