Carbon Fiber On A Black Car
 

My friend thinks it looks bad because its a greyish color mixed with black and it doesnt "flow". I would have to agree but Im a little ricer and kinda want a carbon hood(stock style). What do you guys think of it?

Re: Carbon Fiber On A Black Car
 

I don't think CF looks good on black, no. But the purpose of a CF hood isn't really for looks... if you want a lighter hood and the CF one you are looking at is significantly lighter, then i'd say go for it.

I really like the way cf looks on black cars. I loved how my cf mirrors/fenders/hood/hatch looked on my black 2g

Re: Carbon Fiber On A Black Car
 

CF looks best on black.

Im a ricer...Looks>function

And here I thought this was a continuation of the bash Swifty thread. He bought my CF hood for his black car. I like it.

Re: Carbon Fiber On A Black Car
 

Im too lazy to search some pics so if you have some pics of what this looks like handy then if you could post them up that would be great.

Re: Carbon Fiber On A Black Car
 

I love CF on black also, like of like ghost flames on a car. It doesn't jump out at you, but it is there.

Re: Carbon Fiber On A Black Car
 

I think it looks good, Ive been telling you that for like 3 years.

Re: Carbon Fiber On A Black Car
 

The reason I ask now is because they now offer a carbon trunk for the spyder. I think that would be nice.

just buy it, you have that paypal credit card!

Re: Carbon Fiber On A Black Car
 

Maxed out :(

Re: Carbon Fiber On A Black Car
 

i think it would look good.. a guy that i work with has a black 97 GSX with a cf stock hood and it looks just fine. I wouldnt worry about it.

Re: Carbon Fiber On A Black Car
 

I personally don't like carbon fiber on black cars, any other color and it looks great.
Aside from the glass it's now the only shiny body panel on the car. ;)

Re: Carbon Fiber On A Black Car
 

O well your just gonna have to wait, how much is the trunk that you looking at?

Re: Carbon Fiber On A Black Car
 

Here I was starting to think I was crazy, i'm glad someone agrees with me.

Re: Carbon Fiber On A Black Car
 

I agree :nod:

Re: Carbon Fiber On A Black Car
 

Looks like ass on a black car... why? Because you can't see it, and the color is too close so that its bleh... I do like it tho when people paint their CF stuff, but yet mask off some revealing the CF very subtly.

Re: Carbon Fiber On A Black Car
 

I really like carbon fiber on black. If you didn't like it you could always paint it and just keep for the weight loss, or just sell it and get most if your money back.

Re: Carbon Fiber On A Black Car
 

Yeah I dunno, I just don't think that looks very good. I honestly probably wouldn't paint over that hood, I mean it looks ok enough that I wouldn't spend much money to cover it, but I guess I just think CF looks x10 better on other colors. It just seems odd on black to me.

Re: Carbon Fiber On A Black Car
 

i dunno, i have a cf hood on my car, witch is now black, i think it looks good, but do wat you do

Re: Carbon Fiber On A Black Car
 

What kind of rims are those cuz i really like them!

Re: Carbon Fiber On A Black Car
 

I like that there is no chrome lip. :D

Re: Carbon Fiber On A Black Car
 

Thats what im talkin about I love those rims.. Its rare you find black rims like that without a crome lip...

Re: Carbon Fiber On A Black Car
 

There is a polished part, it's just not out on the edge like most rims. They don't look bad, but they would look better on any colored car other than black.

Re: Carbon Fiber On A Black Car
 

Look at my thread on what rims I should get there is a link to those rims.

Re: Carbon Fiber On A Black Car
 

Not black but CF hood are good looking.

Re: Carbon Fiber On A Black Car
 

i love it on the white talons like my car and the one above, but they need the talon hatch or else a carbon hatch... the white with the turbo hoop looks out of place. Back to the black, that is my second choice for a car color with carbon, since it is so stealth and sleeperish..... plus you could get a carbon or regular rmdsm lip and be ballin!!

You can see it in the day just not at night.
