scion04xb 03-07-2005, 06:50 PM what do u guys think im thinking about getting cf hood cf front lip, cf rear lip, cf side skirts, and cf fenders what do u think it will look some thing like this but with the fenders too http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v205/badassxr50r/flip-xb03-x2.jpg
DJ_X_Trodinaire 03-07-2005, 07:15 PM to be honest.. the fender will look out of place just my .02
scion04xb 03-07-2005, 07:20 PM all comments are welcome i dont care if u hate or like it i just wanna know i mean im spending 1700 bucks for all this stuff if i do it so
grnxb 03-07-2005, 07:45 PM I don't care for cf in general...but make sure if you get a cf hood, get one that doesn't have a dent above the headlight.
Fujiz_xb 03-07-2005, 08:13 PM not really feeling it. but yes on the hood.. shop around for lowest prices. how about a diff body kit?
PeterBall 03-07-2005, 09:37 PM CF will look great on silver.
i like the grill.
C_Monsta 03-07-2005, 09:48 PM CF will look great on silver.
especially with some Black/Gunmetal rims
WagenMaster 03-07-2005, 10:33 PM IMO, a carbon fiber hood looks ok on silver, maybe even possibly a cf spoiler too, but I don't understand the point of having pieces of a car not match the rest of the car.
Before you know it, it looks like one of "those" Civics driving down the road with a primered body kit and fenders from another colored donor car.
The only xB that had body parts of another color and actually looks good is Shelby's/Gene's xB.
Me no likey the above xB :nope:
ohcanada_00 03-07-2005, 11:10 PM I thought about doing the same thing until I realized in my opinion it would look goofy without a CF front bumper.
uwbradley 03-08-2005, 01:02 AM I think CF hoods look alright on most colors- and would look ok on an XB- but that would be the only CF part I would get. More than that would make it look like kinda ridiculous. That xB in that picture above looks kinda silly. My .02
scion04xb 03-08-2005, 01:07 AM CF will look great on silver.
i like the grill.yeah i want the grill too it will look about the same as that pic but with fenders too and different wheels and the grille painted silver like that car
scion04xb 03-08-2005, 01:09 AM well i think im gunna do it i have a thing for carbon fiber i dunno why but i do i love it
thefoth 03-08-2005, 01:46 AM Just an FYI, only the hood in the pic you posted is CF, everything else is ABS plastic.
Max2k 03-08-2005, 02:04 AM I think you're going to look like you have a bunch of unpainted body parts on the car.
I can see a CF grill or wing or even hood/roof working well on TCM, but the all the stuff you noted will just look silly.
scion04xb 03-08-2005, 02:05 AM i know its plastic but they make one that has carbonfiber too
windowtint 03-08-2005, 03:42 AM it would look like you were in a wreck and were waiting to get all your replacement parts painted.
timinaz 03-08-2005, 03:54 AM I think a little CF goes along way. I have a CF wing and I'm looking to get a CF hood. That's about it though for my BCP xB... :P
TheScionicMan 03-08-2005, 04:04 AM I like it on Camo cuz it blends in more. From certain angles it isn't even noticable...
