Default Carbon fiber+powder coated rims

Hey guys this is my first question. I have a 94 civic hatch with a b18c5 swap...


[IMG]



I was wondering if anyone has a carbon fiber hood or trunk that i can buy new/used (in good condition) i really want to get her looking nice. tell me what you would think of these rota attacks powder coated flat or plain blackwith the hood and tail. I need some oppinions. also does anyone have a price estimate on how much it would be to powder coat all 4. i think they are 14 or 15s. THANKS!!!

No idea on prices. Call around to local shops.

CF hood on your car = good. Black wheels are good too, but the gold are fine, too.

The only suggestion I can make would be to lower it a little more, buy some amber corner lights, and get a lip kit.

ew, no evo hood. for an eg, I'd stick with the OEM style hood. the vents just look tacky on eg's.

I'd definately get amber corners and lower it a bit more. I wouldn't mess with powdercoating the wheels, I think the gold looks great on your car and will look even better when you have the carbon hood/trunk combo, amber signals and a little more low.
