I Need To Repaint My Hood - 6/30/2006 6:39:51 PM    TheMoogly Posts: 2941 Joined: 4/7/2006 Status: offline Okay, I have 04 civic.. B96p original deep blue paint job... all stock from the outside... new rims soon... my hood is chipped to high heaven so I am thinking either get it repainted professionally or just get a carbon fiber vis invader hood... what do you think would be good? If cf hood should I go dark rims? _____________________________ 精神分裂病。。。もし分かればあなた天才だよ！! Post #: 1

Alternatively, a set of clean 17-spoke rims would look good on a dark car. See if you can get a CF trunk-lid too and keep it looking symmetrical. (in reply to TheMoogly) Post #: 2

I would rather die than have one of those crappy wing ones. _____________________________ 精神分裂病。。。もし分かればあなた天才だよ！! (in reply to jrhaupt1) Post #: 6
