There are fiberglass ones but none in CF. For the hoods whatever you do STAY AWAY FROM IMPORT FAN. Check out deftracing for good deals on hoods.

Luckily, you have the second gen... the first doesn't have much out there... but I kinda like them better, pop-up headlights...

Again no one makes CF hatches. I highly doubt you'll ever see one unless its one off then it will cost that person a ton of money. Not worth it just to get a "look". Besides having a different color hatch looks ridiculous on our cars. Its so narrow compared to the rest of teh car it is out of place.

I agree with Stealthee... 92VR4RED... I agree... I'd like to make my blisters have holes... so the engine can breathe better though... that or take them off and put grill in place of them... but I don't know how it'd look... I just want them to be more functional...

The blisters were not for engine breathing. Apparently a Mitsu engineer had a brain fart and put the blisters on to clear teh strut towers instead of strut bumps like the second gens.

Though it seems logical that they could function (with modification) to relieve some of the heat in the engine compartment

^^^ I didn't say I didn't like them... they add to the looks alot, but I wish they were more functional, I was trying to think of something I could do to make them unique to my car, and make them function somehow...

Nope... close but I want the stock blisters... no inductions... the 1st gens have 2 caps on the hood unlike the 2nd gen that just has the hood shaped with 2 bumps, the 2nd gens bolt on from under the hood.(im sure your familiar with it)
