Hello, i was just wondering if anyone in here has heard of anyone using carbon fiber sheets and puttting it on their hood? (instead of buying the the entire CF hood). THe sheets are cheap and i was wondering if it would work? Just spread the sheet over our hoods and heat it up and it should stay, right??? Any help or input would be great thanks.

 

I'm a nice guy, but you're gonna get flamed for this one.

 

i dont get it, would it not work? i mean to just get the look of carbon fiber without paying 600 dollars...

 

Try $400 and like Titand19 said, prepare to get flamed

 

man i have been searching everywhere, where can you get it for 400 dollars?

 

Call VIS directly.

 

VIS baby !!

 

Why dont you just buy the actual VIS carbon fiber hood for $348

out of curiosity, how much of a weight reduction does the carbon fiber hood give you?

 

why not throw an sl65 amg badge on the back too? hey, you'll get the look without paying $130,000 or so.

 

hey you could wrap your rims in foil too...thatd be cheaper than buying chrome

 

HAHA

 

word of advice, if you do this be prepared to be "re-finishing" your rims everytime you wash it. foil tends to rip....well mine did.

 

O...M...G...

 

i believe stock hood is around 40 lbs. and the cf is around 19 lbs. Not much difference but FWD and engine in the front..

 

not touchin this one

 

you guys forgot the type-r stickers
