i think its a little much cf(unless you paint over the fenders and bumper) that way u get the weight reduction without it looking overdone in my opinion

once I get my cf hood, my whole car will get painted and everything will match

hey guys, im new but you can check out my intro. in "new members".....
this summer i wanted to do something different with my 00 si...i already have a WW lip kit, and it looks nice and clean, but i want to go w/ a lil out of the ordinary....and still not cross over into rice...
right now im actually in the process of buying some new CF fenders from a fellow honda lover in akron for the great price of $200....ive taken them to a body shop and they fit my application....but id also like to change up my front bumper style.....
i have the lip kit, but that seems to be the new craze nowadays...although i do admit going the lip route keeps the "clean" look....
so w/ these new fenders, i was wondering if the bumper Cf too is too much...i checked the web and found the site which has the fenders im in the process of buying, and i just wanted to see you guy's opinion on the whole "CF front"
any feedback is apprecitated thanks fellas
o yea i do have a CF hood too[&:]........i like the look but i want to keep it clean..

Only time you should ever have CF fenders is if they are painted (and I don't see the point in that) or if EVERYTHING is CF (quarter panels and all) in a full blown race car.
Otherwise it just looks bad.

RE: CF Body work
yeah thats what i was thinking with the fenders ^ theres not really anything around it that will math teh CF, and the fenders are such an odd shape, it seems like it will like a car with mismatched parts that got in an accident. I guess i can kinda see the same thing being said for a trunk too, but i think a hood, lipkit, mirrors, and GAS DOOR would look sick together.
would look sick together.
