i like carbon but the biggest problem i have with it is theives see it and then they steal the car or try to. used to have alot of carbon on my civic hatch and it got stolen outside of my work.

its up to you really. i would do the hood and trunk first since would be the biggest difference then the lip. but really its up to you and i bet someone is going to say put this in the cosmetic forum. but honestly do whatever you want first

i guess the state of being "cool" is in the eye of the beholder. i, for one, don't like carbon fiber solely due to the fact it's played out. the moment you see a honda w/ cf and you think.. "iT'z JdM y0!" too ricer territory.. can't touch that. if i were ever to get cf.. i'd color match it w/ my car before installin' it.

to answer your question though, hood or gas lid? well the gas lid is obviously gona cost less so it really depends on what your budget looks like. but yeah this should go into cosmetics.

It's really lame to buy carbon fiber just to be cool. It does have a function ya know...

A CF gas lid has no function, and the ones on ebay are just overlays on the stock lid.

exactly!!! buy it to lose some weight, rather than doing it simply for looks
