it seems to me most the people posted in this tread is just speaking out of their asses just to fit in or build post count.
in multiple replies, and even in original post I stated this is only for looks, and to satistfiy the ricer in in me, I stated that I am doing this for looks and it also reduce some weight in return, no where in this thread have I stated that I am doing this only to reduce weight. but some people just dont understand.
everyone is entitled to their own opinions, but if everyone is trying justify this and that posting up useless opinions and views. this thread the top 10 worst thread, and it should be locked and deleted. I and not backing down from what I like I just think the bandwaggon is overloaded. time to lock it, I will post pics when I am done. cause at the end of the day 95 % of the people who bashed me in this tread could not beat me in a race on foot, or in my car with ricey carbon fiber hooded car with their cars.
cocky but true.

With shoes or no shoes? 8)

The breakdown of my useless opinion is that it's going to cost alot of money to find out not all the pieces are made by one manufacturer, so the weave will look different, the parts won't match, and with my experience in the bodykit industry in 2001, 37% of the parts won't fit right. Please take this into consideration, and then do what thou will.

This isn't some H-T "OMFG GT4343243R turbo is the BEST!!!!" bandwagon, so don't get all ------- butt-hurt. If you post something as gay as "I'm going to put carbon fiber all over my car" on www.homemademotherufckingturbo.com you should expect for people to tell it like it is.

And then next time you're in Minnesota I'll take you up on that foot race. I've only been at ~9 miles a week (because of the snow), but we'll see how it goes once the temperature goes up.

I know what you are saying, and yes I did took that into consideration, but I bought everything from CWEST , so I hope it matches.. I and I only plan to do the hood and the trunk, and maybe the mirrows if I can get them in power, gas door thats it. and few interior parts I plan to try myself.

I understand what most of the people on here are saying some have some good points, and some just talking out of their asses. I understand not all would like it.
and as I stated above its only to accent certain parts of the car, looks looks looks rice rice rice thats all, no need for everyone trying to justify anything, but people are still talking like that,
if I was looking massive weight reduction I would buy a hatch and gut it down to nothing.
