...........

Front bumper is repainted, back bumper is repainted, roof is repainted..

Carbon fiber hood and trunk should be here not this monday, but the next..

Also picked up a lower grill.



After the carbon fiber.. i'm thinking new seats.

Caligula

What do you mean one of the wise ones? Ditching the stripes?

I hope so.. did you want those seats if I sell them?

BPacak

yeah thats what i meant haha. some cars look good with them but im just not a big fan.

Caligula

Yeah.. mine were painted.. I wanted to keep them.. but at the same time..
I wanted to be more 'tuner' not 'ricer'

Its gonna look really good man, you have good taste!

Caligula

Thanks man. I like the look of cf alot of yellow.

So I went with it.

Not quite sure how much weight will be saved though.

BPacak

yeah but dont let other people influence you on your car. if you like it then your good to go.

and cf does look great. especially with yellow. cant wait till i can save up some money for a hood and trunk

Caligula

I know what you mean, and I dont. Heck, I have a huge CA window decal.

Although the stripes made me feel 16.. and altho that wasnt THAT long ago..
I wanted to grow up.

It will not be noticeable, what company did you go with? Some have gel-coats that fade very fast and i would recommend getting it clear-coated asap.

Caligula

AIS.

1. It looked best.
2. it did have the gel coat.
3. Fast shipping.
4. They double box there stuff.
5. Insurence there items.
6. Free hood pins.
7. Had the key hole, and third brake light.

I'm going to have a body shop do the work for me, becouse cf is not cheap.

Looking forward to seeing what you put together.

ais or vis?

Caligula

I was hurrying out to the pool and didnt proof read. Yeah, VIS.

And thanks, yeah i'd like to know how good it works.

PSH. Carbon fiber is for pussies

Caligula

So is the word candy.

It looks like the VIS hoods fade as well, they claim to have a UV protective coat (gelcoat) that " doesnt yellow in months like other hoods."

So pretty much you get a year before it yellows and fades. I would get it cleared asap, if you cant do it now use a high quality wax or sealent to prolong the life of the hood.

Caligula

Never had anything clear coated, about how much would that be?

IDK ask the guy who called you a *****

It shouldnt be too much, but it will definitely be worth the money.

Caligula

The 'painter guy' is just mad becouse he knows CF would look sick on that orange, but he hasnt bought one yet.

everyone has there own taste. His black hood and trunk look good and i like it but I see no need to bash cf

Ricer

Caligula
