About carbon fiber hoods
Do they only make black carbon fiber hoods?
Cause I think that black carbon fiber on a white car is ugly.
that's just my opinion.
Cause I stumbled across this website that does ur interior and they had liek silver carbon fiber and stuff. So I was wondering if they made silver carbon fiber hoods.

www.FiberImages.com can custom make Kevlar hoods which would be colored as you choose.

2. It is ugly.
3. Probably not real CF but something made to look like it for cosmetics.

Is there anything stopping you from just painting your CF hood?
I agree that it looks ugly, especially on a non-black car. It's like you go to all the time and effort to make your car look good, and then there's this black hood that looks like it came from a junkyard.

i have a white max and i was thinking about a carbon fiber hood a while back....this is what i think.....yeah it does look like u might have a hood off another car (junkyard) if u have a white max or any light color for that fact, but think of it this way.....
if u have rims/lowered/exhaust/body kit or anyhting else exterior and someone sees ur car with all those mods i dont think they will assume that your hood is from a junk yard.....not to mention if u were at a car show with a light colored max and a CF hood ever from far away people would know that is not a junkyard hood and its most likely CF...... jsut my opinion...

I don't think it looks like it is a hood from a junkyard but I just think that it doesn't match the car. Unless you make everything you else do in black so that it goes together, like black decals or stripes. Something like that. Like there is this one 97 Prelude I see around and it is white and and has a black top and it is so ugly.
The only reason I want a CF is so my car is lighter. So maybe I'll get one I don't know yet.
