I want to buy a Carbon Fiber hood what is the one of the best one, and what price am i looking at for it..... I need to buy one by friday.

 

The best carbon fiber hood is the one made for the 1967 accord, which will fit every generation accord despite the body shape.

It depends whether you want OEM style, submerged vents, scooped out or simply a cowhood. Styles will put the price higher or lower, brand name (..how famous..) will also cost you more, but be sure to check here in Honda-Tech, some of the companies that are making carbon fiber products, and maybe you could find something that you are looking for.

 

heres a simple answer to your question. vis carbonfiber. go to http://www.visracing.com
they make the best quality and fitment

 

Great link rollercosta!

 

VIS Racing

 

thanks. just dont buy another carbonfiber hood cause their cheaper cause iv seen them get burned by the sun quickly and flap open and smash widshields while driving without hood pins. my boy who has a vis carbon fier hood on his civic never had any of those problems and doesnt have hood pins for the past 2 years.l

 

vis has great stuff, but you could also try these guys. They're worth every penny IMO.

 

Oops forgot the link haha

or correctly install the stock latch

 

+1 for Seibon. The fitment is perfect.

 

i had a vis on my old hatch, fitment was perfect, after almost 5 months, not one problem...then I traded the hatch...kind of regret it.

 

The clear rips fairly quick... If not really cared for, but other than that...
I never rocked hood pins on the VIS CF hoods for 5 years on my civic and it never had any problems.

 

I've read problems here and there with VIS. It's not a bad company, but they don't get it right as often as people believe they do. I had a VIS hood and read up on it when I was debating to get hood pins or not. Some people have had them seperate without hood pinss and higher speeds (90mph+) and mine wouldn't close properly. I would either have to do a open stacked palm thrust to close it, or just use my butt and slowly sit down on it. I now have a Seibon after an accident and after i was sent a seibon when i ordered a VIS. No complaints here, great quality and closes like oem.
