whats the point? Isnt CF parts like the same as or more weight than stock parts? correct me if I am wrong but I am sure I have read that on here repeatedly!!!! unless weight is not an issue but looks is what your going for
But...............
Your putting all this CF on your car but your painting most of it? I am honestly lost......








I think I have added enough smilies to explane how confused I am lol!

Only my CF side skirts weigh the same as OEM but look better and lower the air flow ground clearance. Hoods and hatches have the best weight savings but fenders are such a small amount there like the same weight. I have never seen CF that weighs more unless it is an overlay but it is not much and your more effected by the amount of gass your loaded with. I will go with full CF or paint to flow.
This is my dream car and is in constant customization. It will never be fully compleated as I never stop dreaming but if I do not go all CF as I am not "currently" going all CF. I will paint the car to flow from one part of CF to the next with a full custom paint job.
This is not for a show nor for racing just for my love of the Z and what I want to make it.

Furthermorer this "wet" Carbon fiber is very flexible and great at returning to its original shape.
Had a dear hit a van next to me one Thanksgiving, the freaking thing jumped upwards bouncing off the van onto the roof of the car infront of me. It then jumped up into the air like rudolf landing on the mess grill on my 02 Civic Si. Tor the grill out and slap landed full body on my CF hood. I watched the dear slam this hood and as the deer fell off my hood onto the medium the hood was not bent in and maintained the original shape.

DOnt get me wrong it spider cracked the entire hood and has this one major cracking thing here but can be fixed for the price of painting the hood.

after reading your recent seibon threads I was impressed by the quality in fitment. I ordered the CW style lip, but I chose the CW style rear add ons because I thought two pieces would be easier line up instead of the rear add on you ordered. I also ordered the TT style side skirts because cvr website had the CW style till the 05. Im wondering if I should change my order to CW skirts like yours

what year is your car? your obviously more experienced, wut would u do?

I would get the CW style sides but I personally think they are the best looking sides without going to RHDjapan.com for that kit I posted yesterday. The sides on that thing was like supperleggra wicked.
