Ok I've really been thinking about doing this to my car, unfortunately I have 0 photochop skills so I will have to describe it to you and leave it up to your imagination.

I have a Lightning Yellow Eight, and my idea was to do ........ TS2 Carbon Fiber Hood, The Burnout KD-IV carbon fiber front, and side skirts with the gas tank and the CF trunk.

I dont know If i would like it or not, I believe black and yellow go good together, but I don't know if it would look WAYYYYYYY to ricey, I'm trying to stay out of the ricer nation, I just don't want to spend all that money just to "see" how it looks and then not like it, and be stuck with like 2k worth of stuff that I don't like anymore

 

i think it would look good. You dont see too many yellows with work done to them. i vote go for it!

 

Ugly

 

hahaha

 

Stryper, nice!! yea i'd go for it!

 

I had CF on my yellow RX-7. Was hot. Do it.

 

Do it. What the worst thing that'll happen. Someone will call you a ricer...blah blah blah, and you can always paint it if it doesn't look good. The colors will look good together, and if not, its not that hard to change.

 

See...thats the "hot girl" option you could have got with your car. So with her and your carbon fibre you'd have a sweet combo!

 

definitely go for the burnout kit. the 2 tone will look good. i'm not sure about the hood and trunk though. i'm gonna keep mine blue. here's an idea of what it looks like on blue. you can get someone to photoshop it yellow if you want.

 

cool idea.. i say no to cf gas caps cuz they tend to look like a mole to me but yellow and cf might look like a bumble bee but i like cf with everything......... lol

 

nothing wrong with cf fuel doors......if you can find them

 

wow i have a yellow 8 hence the name and i ahve seen other yellow cars with CF hoods and do not approve... it doesnt save that much weight newayz so i see no point inspending a bunch of money for no real reason

 

It doesn't save that much weight? Did you tell Jared that about eating Subway? It's not like saving 1,000 pounds, but it does save weight.

 

Wet carbon fiber hoods weigh more than stock aluminum hood.
It would weigh less than a steel hood on a civic yes. But not for us.
Dry carbon would weigh less but aerospace grade CF costs 50x more.

 

Hey.. Nothing wrong with a Bumble Bee... I'm a different kind of Bumble Bee..

It's not CF... it's black, but I believe it accents the car very well.... This is my Bumble Bee


I don't have a CF Hood... (my opinion... that would be TOO much!)

 

i think it will look nice.
if you have all the money at once!

 

i think it would work better with the seibon cf body kit

 

+1 fo' sho.

 

carbon and yellow would look ok but a lil ricey, now if you were to paint portions of those parts or maybe get your bodyshop to make a pearl yellow topcoat to spray the parts with by all means try it. just keep it original

 

hey bumble bee, what rims r those? they r sweet

 

I think mixing yellow and black on the Rx8 is not sexy idea.

but hey, what I'm imagining in my head could be different in reality. who knows till i see it
