Carbon Fiber hood left unpainted on white Camaro? - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

So, I want your opinion on this matter. I want to get a Seibon carbon fiber hood (the TS style http://www.seiboncarbon.com//product...D1011CHCAM-TS/)put on my white SS. Now, I saw some pictures of a white camaro with carbon fiber hood left unpainted and I liked the look it. This would also save some money since no painting is needed.

Do you guys like the look of a white camaro with a black carbon fiber hood?

Check out this link to see a picture of one. http://www.wraptivo.com/blog/wp-cont...2/IMG_8975.jpg
Remember my roof and trunk WON'T be painted black like the one in the picture. However, I do have powdercoated gloss black wheels, I think it may set it off nicely, but not sure.

I think it would look good. I'm also posting your image because lets be honest, people don't want to have to click stuff.

Think it would look great

csjcsj · 06-09-2011, 07:40 PM

I Like It!!!!!!

TCAT · 06-09-2011, 07:43 PM

Awesome! Thanks guys. Here's my car. I just some pics of it in the parking structure so unfortunately it's not great light but you can at least get a feel for what it would look like.

The Stig · 06-09-2011, 07:47 PM

I really like your wheels

TCAT · 06-09-2011, 08:01 PM

Thanks! Just got them a little while ago. I was psyched when I saw them on the car. I got it lowered at the same time and just about fell in love, ha-ha. I hope this hood will look good.

jlugo · 06-09-2011, 08:03 PM

Go for it!...

mbrusco103 · 06-09-2011, 08:24 PM

That picture is of the AMS VIS hood. Just making sure you know.
But yeah i think it would look sick and you should go for it!

TCAT · 06-09-2011, 08:30 PM

Hmm, I thought Seibon was it's own company.The link I provided is for a Seibon hood. Is AMS and Seibon the same company then? I've seen the AMS VIS hood and LOVE it, but I thought they were two completely different companies, and wasn't sure about AMS's reputation.

mbrusco103 · 06-09-2011, 08:34 PM

They are 2 separate companies. the link is for seibon but the picture is not a seibon hood. Personally i love the AMS hood and ive heard the quality is good too.

Ahhhhh, you are talking about the picture on the White camaro (wraptivo) with the black roof and rear lid at the car show above correct? I'll have to look into that hood as well then. I just wasn't sure aboutt he quality. I'll do some research. Thanks

csjcsj · 06-09-2011, 09:03 PM

Just Plasti-Dip your hood for now to see how you like it, and if you dont just Peeeellllll it off!!!!! LMAO! But is an idea!

TCAT · 06-09-2011, 09:14 PM

Hahahaha, that is definitely an idea. I don't think I'm brave enough to try that one
