would it be consider ricer if i put a carbon fiber trunck lid and hood

 

not if you paint them.

 

hahaha thats what i was gonna say...

if its for legit weight reduction purposes only... fine...
for looks only?=ricer

 

i think these two things cancel each other out

go ahead and do it real performance cars use it, i like it no matter what but i think it looks really good when they are only partially painted to follow the lines on the body

 

real performance cars are carbon fiber YES.............. that are painted.

when you do a carbon fiber trunk and hood and dont paint them... how does that NOT look like an import?

 

It depends on if it's fiberglass with a CF cover layer or if it's REALLY 100% CF.

 

i was thinking if i got a CF trunk and painted it to match, except on the panel between the tail lights, that it could look cool. anyone done this before?

 

How does it not look ricer? Because guys who just think carbon fiber are just for ricers are stereotypical fools. I love my carbon fiber hood on my stang. I'm digging the whole black/silver look on my car and the hood looks real nice IMO. My family and neighbors like it a lot and I get compliments from a lot of adults about it. My family is kind of anti-import for my neighbors, well they have 71-72 mach1s, dad has a 69 mach1, brother had a '70 coupe, and they all liked the look on my car, and they never said, "that looks like one of those riceburners".
I think if haters would open up their minds a little, and get out of the whole anti-carbon fiber phase, some may learn to appreciate them better, rather than stereotype.

 

+1 Red stangs with cabon fiber hoods black dd bullits, smoked heads, chin spoiler, grille delete and black rocker stripes and the ****/

 

Well apparently now im a stereotypical fool.... i didnt even realize there was an anti-carbon fiber catagory on stereotypes.... im gonna have to call my mom and tell her she raised me wrong.... booo

do either one of you have the trunk lid also? IMO thats what makes it look ricer'ish

i actually like the carbon fiber hood look, mostly cause i just like black hoods.
