hey guys i have a eg coupe. i just wanted to kno whats the weight difference between fiberglass and cf. im trying to get some good fenders and a good hood. know any sites?

and sorry if this thread was made before, i couldnt find it

 

For fenders try http://www.autoaccessorystore.com that is were i bought my Z3 fenders from.

 

hey thanks do u kno any places for oem?

and do u kno the weight difference?

also i wanted to kno what upgrades i can do to a h22 that u guys reccomend

 

fiberglass and cf both come in different weights. they are weighed in terms of square yards by the oz. you need less square yards if CF to produce the same strength of fiberglass. i did not neciccarly say less ounces. so it matters on what weight cloth they used and how much they used. but in reality they only use 1 layer of carbon and the rest fiberglass mat with cheap resin because they sell it to ricers who dont care about the real properties of carbon just the bling. fiberglass is light like carbon so its mainly the bling


the best upgrade i can tell you to do to your h22 is to research honda-tech

 

i say carbon fiber

oo thanks man, do u kno a good place for oem fiberglass stuff then??

and i'll search for the upgrades

 

yea i say cf u can look around some stuff here they have everything from fenders to trunks http://www.importfan.com/index...y=521

 

its more of a money issue for me. i dont really mind the look of cf. but i like the look of complete oem. cuz when a car that looks like nothing has been done to it except for the catback u see in the back, and the sound of an h22 under the hood....then dam...

 

If you're trying to impress stunnas, get CF panels. If you're going for lightness and, more importantly, cost-effectiveness, get fiberglass, work with the panels so they fit better and rock out with your **** out. No need for more expensive ****.

 

fiberglass is ok I guess but if you really want the quality and goodness, go with carbon fiber...the stuff is bullet proof and lightweight...don't cheap out man....

 

wait, so is fiberglass like easy denting and cheap feeling and stuff?

 

unless you actually need new fenders I'd leave the stock ones on there. They really aren't that heavy at all.

 

well i had a big dent on the right one, then i bondoed it up before i had the car painted. and its not realllly noticable. but still noticable. and i thought, if i replace one, why not replace the other cuz thats just gunna be retarded to have one metal and one fiberglass fender
