Silver Cf pics please!!!
Seibon makes silver carbon fiber hoods and trunks but I havent seen them on any cars yet. Does anyone have some pics of this new silver cf installed on a scooby? The only pics I've seen are on jscspeeds website. Thanks!

suddenly i feel nauseous.

your stock hood is lighter than most carbon fiber hoods.

CF hoods on subarus are pure rice.

I agree, cf normally = rice, however that silver cf is pretty sick. I might have to have an alternate set of hoods and trunks for diff occasions, but just not sure of how it'll look installed.

im sorry that looks just fugly...im sticking with my aluminum hood!!

I like the silver but I'm trying to think what wheels will look good those if you have a white Sti besides silver wheels.
MFR Sweep 02-14-2006 09:28 PM

woah... reading > me

anywho, I would entertain the silver trunk on an Aspen White Scoob...

Maybe someone could email and ask them if they have any more installed pix?

Not sure if he's on here or not, but H4N on ClubWRX has silver CF hood and trunk on his silver STI and I think it looks awesome.

Save your money for more performance mods

CF is a hell of a lot lighter than steel hoods, which come on ALL usdm subarus EXCEPT wrx's and sti's.

oldmansan 02-15-2006 03:26 AM

Oh
well, guess I'll be stuck with my aluminum hood, scoop, and FMIC. I would like a flat hood, but guess it ain't gonna happen.

it aint that bad, but the hole point behind carbon fiber on our cars is more for style because then function. we already come with stock light weight hoods (stock hood is the same weight if not lighter) If you put a normal carbon fiber hood on silver it will give it a different look and thats it but silver carbon fiber on a silver car is point less stick with the stock save 400-500 bucks and buy something that makes the car faster or handle better... my .02

FLAME SUIT: i like silver wrx and sti's with normal carbon fiber hoods with the stock color hood scoop :-(
ThisizBrian 02-15-2006 04:59 AM

not a fan. i like the stock look.
STi-JDM 02-15-2006 05:44 AM

it's just too much... and also, the color will changes after some times... happened on some of my silver CF parts on my boxster...

Has already been seen by the poster

[QUOTE=burnin4] The only pics I've seen are on [B]jscspeeds website[/B]. Thanks! [/QUOTE]

but does any body have a trunk pic?
burnin4 02-15-2006 08:22 AM

I'm not trying to make my hood lighter, just change the looks a little. I'm not getting rid of my stock hood, just want to switch every so often. I dont need any more performance parts, have already put 20k in aftermarket parts, 531whp. So, anyone have any pics of their own car with silver cf parts? thanks!
MikalsWRX 02-15-2006 09:07 AM

Yeah the the stock hood is alot lighter, but it dings and chips really easy :D

I think normal (black) CF looks like a nice contrast to silver. That is how I have been approaching my car so far. The silver CF just looks weird on a silver car to me.

bahboy20 02-15-2006 09:34 AM

pics?
I think he is looking for pics of a silver cf trunk, which no one seems to have.

I too am curious on how it would look on any car as I have not seen a silver cf hood on an impreza.

Bump for pics!!

Looks like CGM will match the "Silver" CF better

As if anything isn't... what about mirrors :p
Kevex 02-15-2006 12:29 PM

silver CF looks even more like just a piece of cloth.
twizzstyle 02-15-2006 12:37 PM

Just remember, silver CF [i]IS NOT[/i] carbon fiber, I always think its so silly to see it called that. It is texalium, which is just aluminized fiberglass.

It looks nice, but its just fiberglass.
BUCKman_02 02-15-2006 01:29 PM

Looks good but is deff. just a show piece. It is all the new rage in Japan which means that it is only a matter of time before if becomes huge over here. Stock is best. If you want a flat hood see if you can pick up a RS hood.
burnin4 02-15-2006 09:07 PM

thanks for everyones comments! I'm not a big fan of cf, but the silver looks pretty cool. I think I'll buy a silver cf hood and be back with some pics. unfortunately it takes 4-6 weeks for shipping, so I'll try to dig this thread up after it's installed.

ok, that explains it, I was just thinking isn't carbon black?

....the 'silver' stuff can be kevlar, rather than plain 'glass, too ;)
spongejosh 02-16-2006 02:39 PM

that is uglier than normal cf. cf hoods on anything but an rs would be rice since they serve no purpose but looks. and these silver things are hideous.
