CAN YOU PAINT A CARBON FIBER HOOD? IF U CAN DOES IT HURT IT?

caps lock


ok now, yes you can paint a cf hood but what would be the point of it? it doesnt make any sense to paint it. if u want a lightweight hood and want it painted just buy a fiberglass hood.

yeah but if youre really serious CF is lighter then fiberglass

Just buy a colored CF hood.
Yes CF can be painted
CF is lighter & stronger than fiberglass

To match the rest of the car. why dosent it make sense? not everyone wants a black CF hood like everyone else has.

Wow you save like 3-4lbs over fiberglass... whoopy do!

3-4lbs dont sound like much but when you save 3-4lbs per part. That adds up & equals major diet.

to paint a cf hood, which is clear coated anyways would only add about 6 to 8 ounces of extra weight to the hood. go ahead and paint it. it wont hurt, just cause its a street car 8 ounces wont hurt your performance at all.

go on the atkins diet to save even more weight :bigthumb:
