Cf Bonnet On Black Car?

[R34NRG]

was planning to get a vented bonnet and always wanted the CF......but i noticed that they look a lil weird on a black car......

wat are your thoughts?

[Dragonforce]

I think you should do it.

They look crap and will suit you perfectly

CF hoods look sweet on any color IMO, especially black

i am not a fan of carbon fibre bonets either - but thats just uncalled for..

Well I have an interesting story (not really)

I was at the runs at Eastern Creek on wednesday and I actually saw The THC r34 neways..

I also saw a Honda Intergra (why i gave it caps i dont know - is it really a car? lol) Now funny thing it had a carbon fibre hood. Strangest thing was it looked really really sexi! It was dark CF but very nice... Set off the black perfectly.

Truthfully I havnt seen something set of a black car like that before a C.F hood would look the part IMO but hey ur choice...

Now for the catch .. I used to be against C.F on black .. even though I never saw one in real life, obviously until I did!

CF on black is nice.

From far away it looks like a standard bonnet but then get in up close and you notice the CF goodness.

Subtle and standout on the same car.

I've been wondering the same thing. Thinking of getting a carbon bonnet for mine.

Dry carbon on a black car

yep depends on CF colour

[tek_01]

thumbs up 4 black with carbon fibre from me

[Munkyb0y]

it looks great imo

i didnt think it would. but i saw a black 34 with a cf bonnet. looks classy/stylish. much better than the panda style (black on white).

eg

Love carbon fibre bonnets on any colour..definately do it.

[3340TH]

Go for it if you want to spend the money, i seen one in town once, black s2 C.F bonnet and C.F drift wing...looked hot.

Im not a fan of them on white. Its such a clean colour y throw black on it. If i was to get a custom bonnet on my car it would be vented and white. If i was to paint it gold (like i want) i would prob go C.F.

[R34NRG]

thanks for the feedback guys.....defiently will give it a try....ill get pics posted when i can.

would anyone like to recommend any top CF bonnet distributors?

Maybe try get a custom one made mine is only one layer carbon and i dont like it any more want a full carbon one

[big_d]

Sorry champ^^^ but have you ever had and problems with coppas and your carbon hood? Heard they were illegal and really want to clarify as I'm keen on one.

cheers big ears,

deriq.

ah sory, btw, I've heard good things from Custom Carbon up in QLD, but they've never replied to any of my emails, so I'm not sure as to how much one would set you back from them.

I f my GTS4 was any other colour I would not have gotten mine as I think it would attract cops but on black it blends in and does the cooling job I bought it for as well. Halfed underhood temps nearly.

[blk180]

well mine is no longer black carbon more carbon/kevla and have never been pulled over and i never take it off(too lazy). Yes it is illegal as far as i know but not much said about it.

[big_d]

^^^ nice hood mate.. from my understanding, black carbon was the wet carbon look and the carbon/kevla is the more dry carbon look, that right?

could I ask how much you paid for it and where you got it? Im really considering getting one myself and painting it the same colour as my car [white] so its alot less attention seeking..

cheers mate,

deriq.
