Personally i really like the look of the complete carbon front end. Also it sounds like you need to learn a thing or two about cars because you stated that your car was "quick but not that fast.". The d16y7 is by no means quick.

yes, i dont know how many cars you've driven but a d16y7 is slow. but yeah, i'm not really feeling your car either. just doesn't flow. but it's your car, so do what you like. just take your time searching and stuff, you'll learn a lot that way, i know i did. oh, and welcome to the site.

i'm not a fan of c/f fenders, i personally think it would look better with just the hood, and maybe a c/f hatch and lips an dsuch if you want to get the whole cf theme...its not my style but i will give you props for being original and doing what YOU want to the car. hope you stick around and learn alot :thumbs up

hey man, i like it but i would paint the rest of the car (or what for sure isnt/cant be carbon fiber) black or another dark color to go with it. other than that i would also get some different rims. those things are slowing you down and in my personal opinion i think those rims in general are fugly.
but good luck, :thumbs up

All that CF is a little much for a street car.

And, yes, I've been to VIR many times, it's really fun! I think a track day would be expensive though.

I like it actually, it's got potential. The rims look a tad big, and you need a carbon fiber hatch too. keep it up, good job :thumbs up

I dunno how much I like the VSM and CF look. I probably would've gotten a 99-00 front end instead of the 97.

hatch, rear bumper/lip, duckbill spoiler, doors, mirrors, dash......jezek, did i miss anything???

that should just about do it for the c/f stuff

i like it man, def different...the carbon front end is hot, but i'd have to agree on the color scheme...with all that c/f, you might as well paint what's left. so far so good, just don't rice it out

SAVE THE SOHCS!!!

Hello, and welcome to the site. I really like the look of the all carbon. Not only does it look good, its probally saving you a s**t load of weight.

I see you are near VIR, do they ever hold open events down there?? I'm up in Lynchburg, and for that wouldnt mind riding down there!

Good modding!
