i remember about 4 years ago before i even had a car.....honda civics were like da car to trick out...at least in new york.....one day i saw one drive by wit a clear hood.....it look freakin hot....someone should think of something like dat for the tc......clear red, clear white, clear green, clear blue!!!....dat would be really nice....anybody has any idea if this even exists????

 

Sorry bro. I just have to say it. RICE. . .

 

lol.....i dont see the difference between a clear hood and a CF hood....if i had a choice i would go wit a clear no doubt about it

 

Yeah I know what you mean. But if you were going to get a clear hood you would have to have a dressed up engine. You would have to be able to eat off of it too.

 

yeah dat would be kindda funny having a clear hood and flossing a stock engine....wat about a clear hood which has a fake engine bay painted on???....hmmm good idea

 

Yeah and then your going to have an EVO pull up next to and wanna race. U would be the only one who knows that the EVO would be at the next light and you would still be in 1st gear.

 

I never have liked clear hoods on anything...I think they're tacky for one thing. Even if you had the engine to show off, if it's a daily driver it's just like putting a big sign on your car that says, "I'm full of expensive stuff...steal me." I do like carbon fiber though. Just my opinion.

 

ill get the clear hood wit the fake illusion engine bay....drive around wit a helmet seatbelt harness on the stock tc seats and a shift light mind u my tc is an automatic.....dat would be fun

 

before i bought a clear hood for car shows... i think i would just take off my hood.

 

No offense, but that'd be about as "cool" as those clear cell phone casings with the flashing lights

Do what you want, but please leave our tC's alone!

 

lmaooooo......none taken i juss thought it was kool as hell when i first saw it back in like 2001......i havent seen anything like dat since

 

long time ago, but my first car was an 99 integra.
i got into a very small accident that broke the latch for my hood. so i had to take it off to drive it.
had the thing off for like 2 weeks. it was freakin hilarious riding around without a hood and seeing the expressions on peoples faces when they pulled up next to me!
lol, good times....good times.

 

i would never go for a clear hood just for the reason that it would make the likelihood of theft that much higher.

you KNOW people would be like "OOOOO SHINY THINGS!"

 

umm..isnt that illegal? i think it is here in CA..

 

^^ VERY ILLEGAL... yes.

 

^ i saw a civic the other day with no hood . . . it was like 6am though, so not too man cops

here's one I saw on SCC(socalcivic) a while back . . .

 

say you decide to run a turbo or a intake... thats just a ticket waiting to happen... or a theft. man... iono i dont think thats a great idea... im even somewhat iffy on CF but CF looks decent on some cars

 

Those Dynamat decals... ILLEGAL...

I really see no point in having a clear hood. It'll get dirty under and it'll scratch/get swirls eventually. Then..it won't be so clear..

 

Its illegal everywhere. You will get a hefty fine from the Rice Cops if they catch you.

 

I don't like the idea.
