That is why if you have a CF hood, you should have a garage to put it in

 

Heh... Alright, well im still in High school, but ill work out something... oh and will the clear coat help prevent the damage the sun does, i mean it should help some correct? What im really asking is I should be able to leave my car out in the sun more when i get a clear coat on it?

 

Clear coat will protect your hood from fading and yellowing from the hot sun.

 

It's just as good as a clear coat as long as you take care of it. As long as you take care of it, i.e. clean and wax it, it will never turn yellow.

I'm hoping that if you take the time to put a CF hood on your car you also take the time to keep it clean and well maintained.

I will fix the description in the listing to say a clear gel coat, but it is still technically a clear coat. You will find that many other vendors also refer to the coating as a clear coat as it is just as effective and serves the same purpose.

My understanding of Seibon's reasoning behind using a clear gel coat vs a typical clear coat (paint) is that the gel is more transparent allowing the detailed texture of the fabric to show much clearer.

 

Hey WTB you saw my car at the last meet (im jeff). I got my hood from assaultech and honestly all i do is wash and wax the hood plenty and it will be fine and 3-4 years down the road when it may eventually yellow i will simply have it sanded and re-clear or painted to match. Just take care of it and it will be fine.

 

Ahh really Jeff? aight man well sounds easy... Sorry but I had to order one man, that was the last of my money and... I looked at SiLVeRE8 a.k.a. WhITeRE 's White 8, hehe and omg it looks so clean, so i thought id join the club. Oh and thanks for Assualtech for clearing that up

 

Heres a couple of latest pics

Dude Silver your car is clean... Im jealous man, your car is sick... Im totally not going to try and replicate ANY of your ideas... haha

 

Silver, really good looking car. It looks like it needs just a little bit more black somewhere in the middle to carry the B&W theme throughout the car...
I don't think Side skirts are really the answer, but I can't really think of what else there is to do.
But yes, +1 on a very good looking car!

 

do eyelids block any of the lights at all?

What plate mount are you using btw?

 

[QUOTE=SiLVeRE8;3136015]Pics with ings wing painted and installed! Will post better pics after coilovers get installed...



thats a nice A$$.

 

You should have your roof painted black or at least vinyl it black. It should finish off what assaultech was saying

 

I like the wing, but its really weird with the CF trunk.

 

Btw Jeff how long did it take you to get your hood in??? was it exactly on the estimated delivery date???

 

Thanks!

I have been thinking about something with the black theme or I might just paint all the carbon body color.

No I dont believe the eyelids blocked any lights. For the bracket I made my own out of aluminum plates.

Thinking about it but I am fabricating something special currently... stay tuned

I think it looks better in person

badass 8,

are you gone be getting a diffrent from bumber or keep it stock just wondering it looks good either way?

 

your hood looks way better than mine. i must have got the "bad" batch. ha ha ha. the color is the same but mine is super wavy the gel coat is all over the place if you look from an angle like the last shot of yours you can see a bunch of wave.

 

your car looks good are those KEI office eyelids? they look great so does your hood!

 

Thanks Tony! Damn those are nice *** pics!!!

 

I saw that car at Seven Stock.

The black and White combo is real sweet.

 

Thanks! You have a nice ride also! Liking the RE-Amemiya front end
