found this site www.fiberimages.com , they make one for the 99-01 tl and even the new RL, maybe if a lot of people e-mail them about the 02-03 tl, they'll actually make a carbon fiber hood

Rice IMO. Please don't ruin a beautiful car like that. But that's just me. It's a free country, you can do whatever you want with your property.

You have a TL, not a civic. Big difference. And you have such a nice color too, c'mon.

****, I have ABP TL-S aslo, hate rice, and still think this is not too bad. My hood has more chips than anything anyhow with this thin paint and color that shows all.

HOWEVER, these hoods are not designed to fold on impact, and they even advertise that fact as it being the strongest hoods. Well, what stops that hood from choping off your freaking head in a frontal impact then?

Exclamation

Unless you'll be professionally racing your car, there's no need for a CF hood.... I'd stay away from it.... couldn't resist the pic

all they do is break into a few pieces, depending on accident.

They don't make one fo the 99-01 TL, only for the old RL. They will need a hood from a 02-03 TL not lot's e-mails.

No dude...listen to me, they don't make a TL hood.

it says 98-00 TL, but is RL, since the TL hood from 98 is different to the 99-01.

I'm not insterested because they don't have one nor they make one for the TL, unless you send your hood or something.
