Default CF colors

Ive seen the silver CF look, do they have any other colores like red, green, yellow...

or can you just get those colors to have that effect?

understand?

If you can, I challange someone to step out of the box and do it, because I will...

once I find out if you can

Thank you for your time

I'm guessing that you are not able to access neither GOOGLE OR eBAY??

Sure would get your answer a whole lot faster.

First, you should hit up this link.

To lead off, I'm not a CF ninja or anything. In fact, I don't particularly care for the look of it that much so I haven't done much research on it (colored or otherwise). Nonetheless, I've picked up a little bit of info.

Carbon fiber only comes in black, the color of carbon fibers (strange, that...). However, you can tint your carbon fiber for a colored look. Someone on here sprayed his CF engine cover in red. It matches his BCP xB pretty damn nicely, if I may say so myself.

For brighter colors like white, red, silver, orange, or whatever what's described as "orange CF" is really orange kevlar with resin on it. A good example of this can be found on Nilo (XBBOY)'s car (check the featured rides).

Check out the Hot Lava TEIN xB in my links below. That will answer your first question.

You could always take the part to a body shop and have them scuff the clear and respray it with a kandy....Then it would be any color you want......
