CF Hood on a EBP Lude?!?! - Honda Prelude Forum

Randy0002 · 01-17-2002, 02:47 PM

Does anyone have any pictures or opinions on how a carbon fiber hood would look on a Electron Blue Pearl Prelude? I've looked on HP and have found a bunch of carbon fiber hoods, but none on a EBP lude. Thanks...

I think BlueShadow has one. Looks pretty nice!

ya, the carbon fiber hood on our cars ( EBP ) looking f ucking tight... the reflection of our paint off the hood looks GOOD

Which CF hood are u planning on getting?

Pete · 01-17-2002, 03:36 PM

I've forgotten who it was, but I've seen a sig pic here. CF looks better on EBP than on any other color, IMO.

i want one after im dropped and rims. looks weird if you are mostly stock

Randy0002 · 01-17-2002, 04:20 PM

to be totally honest, I don't know too much about carbon fiber hoods. What brands to get, how much they are, care and up keep, etc. I'm just now starting to look into them. My car is only 7 months old, do the pros out weigh the cons w/ a carbon fiber hood? Is it worth the investment?

It looks real nice and clean

I forget the one lude on here that have it w/ the drawing of the HID's

cementups · 01-17-2002, 06:55 PM

I want one for mine too.

EBP is probably the best lookin with a carbon fiber hood....I kinda wish that I had gotten EBP...but then I think bout my Premium White an I change my mind again

: besides....I might paint it blue later on, but it'll be a little different pearl blue tho....here's some of the pictures that I have that I think you guys were referrin to...

That color on a lude is tight!!!

I desperately need a new hood..since I slightly dented mine in a fender bender...I have a 97 sh san Marino red lude...and I want ur opinions on how a CF hood would look on it??? What about the red CF hood??? Any insight would be helpful...BTW...the CF hood looks nice on the EBP!!!

keep in mind a couple of things when u get a CF hood!!

Don't get one which is TOO "light" since u will NEED to install hood pins in order to secure the hood.

Also, IMHO CF hoods make it easier for a thief to break into ur engine compartment, regardless of what ppl say. Also, CF hood is a like it or hate it kinda thing. Some ppl who don't know cars would think u have a "ghetto"

hood after an accident or something!!!

How low is BLUE SHAWDOWS car and what suspension is he using.

IT looks good!
