It's actually made by FirstMolding/CRUX, who also makes some cool C/F mirrors

Re: J's Racing Hood CF Hood (kengs)

cool, thanks.

Does anybody make some high quality CF mirrors that are moe like the Spoon style (one piece, close to the body)?

Looking at the FirstMolding site I can only see this style of mirrors...

Back Yard Special makes a CF hatch for the 99-00 civic hatchbacks.

Check with the guys at http://www.racelinedevelopment.com they might be able to get their hands on a cf hatch for the R's!

I think AJR is the official NA distributor...which means IPS can get ya the goods.

Leo (ITRinEJ) can probably get them too.

Re: J's Racing Hood CF Hood (Black R)

Don't recall anything being said about quality? Or anyone in this thread asking either...

They were just looking for product!

Vision/Spoon mirrors for the DC2 are discontinued.

Who makes the best quality lightweight body panels?

No matter what it'll cost a grip, so I might as well go for the highest quality stuff.

J's racing FRP stuff seems nice.

J's is nice, but a lot of their stuff is made by others. SS Work's makes some really nice FRP panels, dunno if they do for DC2s though (mainly EF-8s and EKs)...Kenny (Black R) has my SS Work's catalog, so maybe you can ask him
