of coz CF hood lighter than the stock.. but the point for normal modifier is just cosmetic purpose.. rarely people use it as performance as the CF hood u find nowadays are mixed with other material like fibre.. not 100% pure CF.. =)
isnt a pure cf hood illegal? they can get easily break to pieces when hit something rite?
yea pure cf is illegal...it must be like fibreglass covered by carbon only...as i rememberd from my cf hood for my impreza.
This is epic win!Quote:

Anything which is not from stock is illegal....no matter Full cf or not....most cf bonnet in the market is base on Fibreglass with CF cover.....Even Geniune items. Full CF bonnet are made by Dry carbon which is really pricey.....I don't believe there is any full carbon items on street in Aus atm.......:pQuote:

wait so.... getting a cf hood is illegal?
no a pure CF hood is illegal. if carbon is laid over a fiberglass hood, its not illegal. cops have driven pass me didn't pull me over. got stopped on the road for speeding, cop didn't say anything, all they said was "really nice car mate, but i'm sorry i have to give you this ticket" and i have alot of CF on my carQuote:

the hood it self is cheap but the delivery from thailand with DHL with that level of dimension its worth the same as another cf hood lol which is why i said the delivery is supa gay!!!!

more expensive to do here but turn out the same once u pay for taxes, customs, handling fee + whatever fees you inccur
wow which means u need more than $500 us just to ship the hood!!!Quote:

yeah.. because taiwanese and japanese have nice stuff that hardly get here.. xD
I got a set of 17" wheels and slammed my car even more last night lol.. side skirts are 60mm :P haha
wow. pics!!!
people who are still running stock suspension.
can you check for me,
Does your right side sag more than the left.
my car, on the right i can fit 3 fingers. the left side i can fit 4ish fingers
is that with handbrake on? coz if handbrake is on i think the rear on the right side will look like it is sagging...just try...
oh really!!
coz yes in fact. everytime i checked my hand break is on. coz i got out of the car. ill give it a go without n check it out.
tah
wow dannybubu, is that true? i wanna ceck mine to now... except that mine is @ smash repair :(
well at the current rate now yes cause of the recession. when i did it, aus dollar was high US$1 = AU$0.96 :DQuote:

spotted 1 of u guys 2day, black with bodykit and black rims with red lip, i've seen pics of it before, i think he was at syd monthly, looks even meaner in person
shipping from jap can cost you up to 700-800 buxs depends one how big is the item.....they dun count weight on bulkie items....they count on size......thai and taiwan may be a bit less......$1800 sounds a bit pricey......unless its a geniune product......if anyone after geniune product I can certainly get a price for you......as I get my stuff from jap direct...
could be the fuel tank.
and could be coz i sit on the right.~
btu yeah. hand break on or off. its teh same thing.
so i guess excuss to get coil overs>? lol
That would be rene i think

thought i would post it up lol.. my little baby 17's
holy damn thats pretty slammed. those 17s look bigger with the car so low haha. got your imported kit yet? :L
i reckon the 17s look alot nicer then the 20s...
those are nice..well done...black on white is actually nice too huh...
Looks great... but I wonder if the tyre is too low profile to still have the same overal diameter... can't quite tell from the pic. I was going to get white, just never found the right set.
nice wheels u have.. if u install the mugen kit.. it will look more lowered.. =)
Man why dont you say hello! :P

oh right, wasnt yours then lol.
wow those are nice rims... whered you get them from?
They are lenso samurai rims by the look of em (red thing in the middle). Tempe does lenso. So does Taleb Tyres (trader here)
ahhh. i'm sort of regretting my choice to go for fd2 instead of fn2r...
I just wish I waited for the new Accord... (not the euro)... looks hot with mugen kit.
oh really? i reckon the new euro just seems a bit chunky =/. prefer the old model
new accord v6 is hot

Plus last time i went tempe they treated me like shit and if i was the biggest retard ever...
Not to bag anyone out but here are the price differences...
Tempe w/ kumho ecstasy tyres - $2799
Bob Jane w/ Falken 451 tyres - $2589
Jax Quickfit w/ Falken 451 tyres & lock nuts - $2100
shit, that is CHEAP from jax... u got a great deal hey
I would have gone for the white samurai (forgot the model) if i could get them in... but ended up with Rays G-Games :)
ur rays are lovely looking =].
btw does anyone know the width and offset of the 17" enkeis on civic FD2?
Pics as promised..black8thgen!! perfect place to hang around, huge parking lot and fishing?Quote:

Look at how much i saved in the end...
I mean when i rang back tempe to see if they could match the price they told me i was lying and blah blah so i was like stuff u then doesnt bother me u think im lier...
well I've rang KMART auto and quote the price that Taleb gave me, and they said "what are you waiting for then?" so... :p
haha.
btw at rene: ive been to that spot before as well i think. for a family picnic lol. pretty peaceful and serena spot to hang around for a day =].
^^^ is it bobbins head or Lane Cove?
i'm pretty sure its lane cove =]. or my memory might be failing me...
Bobbin head is always a good drive we should do a cruise down to bobbin head...Quote:
