Yo, ur car loos bad ass, i really like it, i am gonna paint my stock tails all red but i like the idea of getting the altezza's and painting em, never seen that, and the GSR Sawblades look real nice on ur car also, Maybe paint em gunmetal and they will look even better!

Hey seth 90DX/ZC i would have to say that carbon fiber handles would be stupid!! why would you want carbon fiber handles? what weight reduction, thats such a small part of the car that you probaly wouldnt even notice that its carbon fiber!! also there to many moving parts in the handles for them to last if you use carbon fiber, and fiberglass.

i owuld guess its the look but i always thought cf was only for cars after you did all the internals so there really is no point until you actually need the reduction

EXACTLY!!!! It Would Be For Looks Only And You Really Cant Tell The Difference Between Carbon, And Flat Black (because it so little). So Theres Really No Point In Doing It. Thats Just My Opinion, So Dont Get All Pissed Off At Me Now!!!

I didnt get all pissed off at you before did I? Your intitled to your opinion and I wont talk trash about it... I DO think it would look tight as hell if you did the door handles (Not just the piece of metal you pull on, the scoop you put your hand into as well) in carbon fiber, there are alot of different grains of CF I can get CF with grains the size of marbles to sand specs that you realy cant see unles its (-) <--- that close to your face... It all depends on grain size.

Not a chance in hell... I will try and find a movie on the net I saw of some guy jumping up and down on a CF hood as hard as he can, no break or distortion!

yea carbon fiber is really really strong if it is done right, but I do agree, I wouldn't really want to do the handles, even the whole things, but hey, thats your thing. I have my own ideas with CF, but I'm not gonna say anything until I get it done.

The wing? I already thought of that... But they are a bitch to bust out! Im just gonna get the JDM one and pose on all them jap folks... I still want to do the center piece in CF, the piece between the back lights! It would look cool as hell if you had a CF roof job (This would save MAD weaght!) along with a CF hood it'd be like one huge CF racing stripe!
