Default Could I see some C/F hoods on a red 96-00 civic

just like the topic says. If you have a c/f lip thats good too. I am debating what I want to do with the exterior of my car this winter.
Thanks.

I was just wondering with the BKNW vented hoods will I have any problem with valve cover clearance? My stock hood is extremely close to my valve cover now. I have a b18c5 in my 96 EX. Actally I can see a small mark on my hood and valve cover where the must rub a little when going over bumps or something.

there is nothing functional about it... you would probably be better off spending your money elsewhere.

cool.. but he was just making a point.. and you both are right.. hes right because a CF hood doesnt have a function on a non race car.. and you're right because its your car and you can do whatever the hell you want.. thats why i always laugh when someone wants "help" on fixing up their car from a message board.. its like people dont have their own style anymore..
