Default New Toys...

I ordered my Fiber Images Carbon Fiber Hood today from Diablo Autosports today. I just got my Defi gauges (boost & FP) in as well. I ordered $700 of RM Racing billet pieces yesterday and my Hose Techniques Honda Show Kit. They don't have the show kit on their site yet, but you can call them up and order it on the phone.



Now the only thing left is my hardtop and rims. I am really leaning towards getting OZ Superleggera's. They are 5 kg in 15

If you wanted black, why not just buy a black s2k? Personally, I think it makes the Yellow look like a bumble-bee... OTOH, I also think CF hoods are ugly... just my opinion. Looks "okay" on the Silver though.

what is the weight savings with the CF hood? the stock Al hood is pretty light so i doubt if you save that much, do you? check out the Volk GTNs (TNguen(?) on this site has them)...my choice for aftermarket rims.

anyway, your car looks cool...not my kinda thing...but cool.

The CF hood goes well with the yellow. There's actually another guy with the same setup in the photo gallery forum.

Why would you even consider a 15" rim? I don't even think that would fit.

The blue front blinkers are my favorite! ... The yellow S2K with the new Mugen bumper, great combination but somehow the color doesn't really attract my attention.

I would love a cf hood, although, I would reduce unspung weight first, maybe some cf rotors like in f1, if fact, I would like a cf body, I can dream right?
