What? White Carbon Fiber? I don't think you're going to find that. Do you mean Carbon Fiber Hood that has been painted white? If so I don't think that would look very good on a black car. Kind of looks like the old black and white police car scheme.

no UFeniZe is right you can get carbon fiber in different colors than just gray and black weave. i am interested to see how blue/black and white/black hoods would look. although im worried that it would not be tastefull on a s2000 it would still be interesting to see

I've see other colors, but never white CF? Does Zebra immediately pop into anybody else's head?

You could almost pass of my silver cf interior as being white...not sure how something like this would look on an entire hood though.

Russ, I'd imagine that reflects light a great deal. Imagine that on a hood coming down the road.

Actually, I never noticed any vis problems with the kit but I really couldn't imagine a hood with this scheme..maybe on a white car only? The shift knob is Momo Shot. Very large and very heavy (well, heavy because I unscrewed the top portion and put golfer's lead tape in there to add LOTS of weight). Now, as I've said previously, it's like a screwdriver through a can of STP oil treatment! One finger shifting. Plus it matches the interior very nicely. Here's a close-up before I added the silver cf kit. Cost is around $110.
