To every man his own. But sounds like its gonna look like a nice car in the end, pics would also be helpful in your process. BTW I got a new cf radiator cooling shroud that I'd be willing to sell to you for a great price lmk it just sits on my wall lol
ok yeah ill let you know, i just got into these cars like a year ago so im still learning, but i thought it would be a cool idea ya know. and yes ill get pictures once i get all the stuff in thanks

Carbon fiber cracks and warps in sunlight. If your using this car for anything but shows and in the garage, I would't do it. I've had 2 different carbon fiber hoods and both cracked, faded and warped within a year. Best of luck

Carbon fiber is nice, just don't go over-board with it. A lot of people tend to play it out 
But hey it's your car so do whatever you want with it!

A stock Evo hood is lighter than cf unless it's dry carbon and your better off wrapping it in a Sikk cf wrap just not a cheap autozone one.

Not only this but it like doubles the cost of any part you wanna buy Originally Posted by DSMdynamic

but to each there own, I have a lot of CF on my car... well... hood, wing and vortex gen, but yeah i agree with you DSM i think thats what im gunna do, "play it out" i just spent around 6k on the motor, got the FP black, ets front mount, intake, tial bov and some other goodies. so im gunna take my time. thanks guys
