I dunno, I'm a dork.
No, season why member go berserk is owner say stuff like "I bought cf hood, cuz it's lighter than the stock." Which btw 99% of the time false (unless you get the real deal dry cf. Even w that, you barely shave weight.

Like Tech, just want cf for the looks, whatever, it's your car. Just don't make false excuse for putting cf on the car lol

Exactly. Good point. I have no delusions about dry cf saving massive amount of weight. I just really like the non-cleared pre-preg stuff. It's a very intriguing material..

Ok...like you said, I got the car to tinker with aesthetically(exhaust included) you never know down the road but for the most part I fell in love with her and wanna doll her up and break some necks in the process.

Thank you! This is totally legit! I'm totally okay w that. Hate... well, hate is a bold word, so I'll use "dislike" member use BS excuse to put cf parts. It's okay to say "cuz I just like the look of it". If other member think "rice". Who give a f'ck! It's your car, not their car!

/rant lol

Dafux that? And I'm not going to go crazy, just a sort of kit for it and roof maybe. Then either my handles or mirrors not totally sure yet since I have the keyless entry, not sure how getting cf handles would work.

The 86 RC model is pretty sweet in its simplistic intention:

No bling here.

I'm old school. When I think sleeper, I think of an ego bursting machine like a hopped up 80's Regal T-type. Hot.

Goobers, the lot of you. Lol
Anywho are there only the two legitimate carbon fiber patterns(twill and checker)?

I like the twill weave the best.. I want dark and I'm still debating on clear coated or not.. Haven't really seen the two side by side.
