Point is that carbon fiber parts are ostensibly installed for the purpose of weight savings, i.e. Added performance. Therefore wrapping a hood or a fender in something that only looks like a piece of carbon fiber just gives you a mismatched fender, without any of the benefits of actual carbon fiber (which as you stated is negligible on an s2k in the first place). Obviously i wasn't implying that there is a performance value to wrapping, which is why it just seems silly to me to wrap it in fake CF instead of just a solid color.

 

I completely wrapped my S all around in blue painters tape! Only cost me 15 bucks and you can't even tell its been wrapped from 8 feet away lol.

 

The car in this article is wrapped. http://www.hondatuningmagazine.com/f...000/index.html

 

Fake!!!it's a matter of time to be destroyed by the sunlight in a year or so,if you want it flat just paint it
or buy a descent carbon parts.

 

Whats fake?

Actually it won't fade after a year.

Carbon parts are expensive and don't remove much weight vs. aluminum.

For looks only, there isn't anything wrong with wrapping a car.

 

this one is very nicely done. 99% sure it's a wrap too.

 

I never said there was anything wrong with it, as long as it's all solid. I would like to see an s2k wrapped entirely in the carbon look vinyl, or any other solid color. But that is probably because I think the only CF parts that look good unpainted are hoods, so I suppose I am biased. To put my ranting to rest, good luck to anyone who wraps their car, looking forward to seeing the results!

 

thats a sick S2k...

 

That's definitely wrapped and I think that is satin black

 

I was quoted $1200 taxes in for the whole car.
