Thread: Inferno Hood: Carbon Fiber or Fiberglass?

Get the CF version as its dark and will match your black car.

cf would look good against black

I'd go CF. Being black, most people won't notice from afar, and up close they'll just say "oh sweet carbon fiber!"

fiberglass the finish on the cf sucks

I dont see the point of getting carbon fiber then painting over it. So if you want to paint it, get fiberglass. If not, CF.

Fiberglass is almost as light and way cheaper.

ok..i would go with cb b/c ur gp is black. I got the fiberglass one..looks good just having problems with it sticking up slighting in the front drivers side but overall looks great!. it all comes down to $$$$$$

You can buy CF if you live in a nasty winter state, you just need to keep the hood off the car during winter.

Buy the CF hood, and if you don't want the WHOLE hood to be showing CF get some gloss black vinyl to go over it and accent the CF the way you like.

Straight gloss black vinyl could be had for little $$$ and cut properly to accent it and if you get the good kind it stretches a little to mold around the few curves the inferno hoods come with. It also weights next to nothing, and if you decide you don't like it or want to change the design, pull it off and do it again!

Cf and they can be painted over just fine just sand it first buddy did that with his skyline its been the same noe for 4 years no problems

Just cause there are multiple people viewing this....and commenting it...and probably didnt check the dates, etc.

OP has 2 posts, and this thread died 4 months ago.

So just let this little thread breathe it's last breath, and go peacefully?

You also live in Florida. Fiberglass body panels are notorious for mounting tabs cracking and breaking in cold weather.

However, Corvettes are made out of Enduroflex, just like the Fieros, and Saturns. Not fiberglass.
