The sad part is most newer Hondas would run side by side with your car with a few mods. LOL

Everyone hates on honda, when they make some of the best cars on the road. Its just a bunch of 16yr olds turn them into POS cars.

Don't be gay. You're not saving enough weight to matter to look that stupid. Your in SanD. so you're not going to make enough of a heat difference with going for a CF hood over a Fiberglass one.

Heck even if you were in 29stumps or Barstow, it wouldn't make enough of a difference. CF is black, you're car is white. Get a nice resin/FG hood paint it white and no matter what is done to your car, you wont have any issues.

Although I am assuming there's nothing done to your car that is so extravagant because you're in the Emissions Hell capital. (Next Maryland of course)

I should clarify I don't "hate" hondas... my area is just really bad about the old beat up ricer hondas. There's a tuner local to me/I went to high school with that builds hondas and they're crazy fast. I have a lot of respect for people who know how to make them fast.

Thanks, I haven't done much to my car though . I've been busy the past few years with school, working, and having a girlfriend ($$$). I've done 4.10s, flowmaster 44s, tokico d-specs, eibach lowering springs, MM c/c plates, MGW ss, tb/plenum... nothing really significant. I need to get some real brakes, better tires, and start working on my suspension.

Your car though is beautiful, I love the hood

dont use cruizinconcepts. they do a carbon overlay over fiberglass. it's all for looks. if you want do a www.VISracing.com hood and trunk. they are actual carbon fiber and not fiberglass with a single layer. i am getting their trunk lid for 2 reasons, i want wingless and is weighs about half of what the stock one does.

If you want to swap out stero components, can't beat pioneer stuff (have it in my car). I don't think you need to shell out big time money though for the touch screen... Pics of the car?
I have the stock H-pipe lol I do plan on getting springs to drop the car. Chin spoiler seems pointless IMO. <a href="http://s82.photobucket.com/albums/j250/doorsopenmang/?action=view&current=d5cb50b0.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j250/doorsopenmang/d5cb50b0.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket Pictures, Images and Photos" /></a>
