looks different, can't wait to see what it looks like on your car :D

Ya it looks cool. You should get a CF hatch too, it would make the car flow real nice.

dude thats really really cool! I actually prefer the look of painted cf than an entire cf hood alone.

it's a plus that it's blue too :P

Whoa. Is that your work? Looks great!

very nice.

I agree.

That is looking really nice, I would get the CF Hatch it would be a killer combo.

Cool!

put it on the car, that's what i think about it ;]

Definetly like it so far, now lets see it on the car

Wow that does look really really good. :)

x2!!!!

let's hope the paint matches.

Wow that looks really good.

I might have to steal this idea from you for early next year when I get a cf hood, lol

Did you do the paint job yourself? If not, how much did that run you?

that's gonna look sick on the car. I love CF hoods with some paint on them. Looks really nice.

Was it all carbon and then you painted the sides? Definately is unique and will add a good bit of looks to your car.

that's definately a unique look, as i said, and i'm sure it'll spark more in the future.

ok. i can't wait. i wanna see it.

from the pics it looks very nice...now i wanna see it on your car

Oh i really like that. Now put it on your car for us to see.

looks different, can't wait to see what it looks like on your car :D


x2's

looks good can't wait to see it on the car! :clap:

reminds me of a muscle car for some reason.. paint job well done.

Dang it! I am doing the same thing with less paint on the sides. I am following the body lines with AP to match my Tc and then going with a blue pearl on my hatch to help blend it in better.

sick. i wanted to do the same thing if i got a cF but i went with fiberglass i really like it and it will look really good with the BBM tC. i prolly woulda connected the BBM over the front tho and took the paint up to the first bend on the lip of the scoop. like an upside down "U" of paint. "n"...maybe? lol. the pearl over the CF is great we call that candying lol but yeah. its awesome bruh. get sum CF trim elsewhere on the car. most def the hatch. dark wheels. flush mount wing in CF or even the kaminri wing with CF blade. u got urself a niiiice car. give us installed pics!

it's not THAT unique... I've seen a million altezzas done up that way...

it's not THAT unique... I've seen a million altezzas done up that way...


Wow you having a bad day? This isnt an altezza is it?

it's not THAT unique... I've seen a million altezzas done up that way...


Wow you having a bad day? This isnt an altezza is it?

Agreed..............It's unique for a tC.

the added pearl coat over the rest of the CF is a very nice touch!

ya, sorry. that's pretty unique.

:eyebrow:

what'd you expect...

that wasn't meant to be offensive in the first place :loser:

the added pearl coat over the rest of the CF is a very nice touch!

That's what I was thinking. I've seen a partially painted C/F hood on a tC already. But I haven't seen that. :clap: Very nice. :clap:

looks sweet get it put on the car and take a few pics!

MMMMMMM....that is sexy....*SLURP

that does look very nice. well done.
Thats coming from a person who doesnt like CF very much, but thats a nice combo

a nice intercooler would look good behind that bumper..hint hint


looks great man....not personally a big fan of cf, but you made it look nice

Yes i can not agree more. A nice intercooler would look great. Im going to see if i can set something up with chris rado. He just came out with his own turbo kit for the tC. It produces 350 hp striaght bolt on, fuel manegment everything comes with his kit.


Good stuff.

wow...thatsounds like a sweet kit...

too much for me though

good luck man

Now you just have to drop that sucker. :)

very nice! :clap:

Good stuff! Can't wait to see what you're going to do next.

Man that's hawt.
I've always hated how the cf hoods looked like they didn't belong, but this makes for a great transition. Good work.

It turned out very nice. Congrats.

Thanks guys next are my 20" rims painted the same
color as the car in the center. With the 3 inch chrome
lip that they offer with the style of rim im getting. Here
they are in chrome but you get the picture.

Halo projectors.

Halo fog lights.

Some chrome grilling.

Diamond plate canards.

Dont do diamond plate.

yeah, i dunno about the diamond plate canards...

Dont do diamond plate.

why not guys?

What do you think?

How about carbon fiber with a blue pearl to match the hood?

I'd stick with the C/F personally.

^^^Correctamundo. Get a chromegrill and pwdr coat it to match color of car

Or get a turbo w/intercooler to fill up that space in tha front but over all i love the way the car looks.

i got a touring bach bumper in poly urathane because i wanted to run dual exhaust.
It gives it that euro tunner look. And a plus with the poly is that it is a good fit everytime, compared to fiberglass.

I would run nothing on the bumper. I think if you add too much you will loose the clean and sexy lines your body kit worked so hard on.

I was talking with some of the guys from firmwareworx. I hope they come out with a carbon fiber fender flare. That would realy top off the euro tunner look.

I think BBist may be considering that in the future. But I wouldn't hold my breath just yet.

Can any ony photo shop the black to the lines on the side of the hood ? I want to see what that woud look like

Nice job!, is the hood clearcoated? What paint system? BTW the fit and finish is pristine

yes it has a blue pearl in the center over the cf. And painted blue blitz mica to match the paint to the car. The hood has approximately 8 clear coats on it after cutting and polishing it out. There is no line that you can feel when you rub your figers across the paint and the cf. Smooth as a babys behind.

amazing!

looks real nice..

Firmware can do anything good choice in shops right there.

I LIKE IT!!
