CARBON FIBER HOOD
I already own a SEIBON carbon fiber hood, and my car is almost finish getting boosted!!! Is there any chance that my hood is going to <U>fade</U> or <U>bend </U>because of the <U>MASS</U> heat under my hood??? If so, what can I do to prevent this??? THANX GUYS

I've seen Seibon and VIS hoods turn yellow in spots that are directly over the valve cover/header. It also depends on the type of epoxy/resin and clear coat they use.

Quit being a retard if you're asking for help. And quit being stupid until you can afford an "real" authentic hood.
Obviously you didn't do enough research on boost if you're still worried about underhood heat.
Make another smartass post. I'm waiting.

Uh-oh....looks like we have a hardcore balla right here. Turbo setup, S2000 (most likely used), and a SEIBON hood....I'm betting Mugen-stylee.
H-T better watch out...we got a pseudo hard-core J-Tuned JDM-ish S2000 in the making here.
[/SARCASM]
BTW, I wouldn't worry about warpage on the Seibon hood and using a turbo-kit. Maybe you'll get lucky and the heat that the cf hood will absorb will straighten out and stretch the fitment of the hood on the car to fit better than it does coming from the Seibon Mugen-style factory.

Listen you 18yr idiot, who is very lucky to have a s2k already, im sure you didnt pay for it. There is a old school guy (DC2) giving a suggestion, he's been on here since 2000. He already had a 500hp turbo integra when you barely had pubic hair. Try not being a idiot and be glad he was trying to help out.

The last part sounded like sarcasm too.
