I think it looks better when you have AE headlights.

Should look hot on a White Max. IMO, I think that the CF hoods only go well on cars that will offer a strong contrast with the paint, i.e. Blue & White.

Be sure to post some pics when/if you get this done!!!

Almost looks good. Just lower it and give the sideskirts back to a ricer civic.

I would never get a different color hood on my car. The max is elegant and stylish. Why ruin it with a ricer-different color look?

i'm pretty sure carbon fiber can be had (for a price) to match paint colors now.

I've seen a blue one, and a white one on a few cars.

i'm sold.

going to pick one up within the next three weeks for sure. don't think i'm going to put it on just yet. it's going to stay with the clearcoat but i will add some airbrush graphics around the front edge in nissan glacier pearl and metallic graphite to match front grille.

will install in spring along with my air bags- unless they get sold beforehand. going cheap for $1100, get at me.
