I think I've established by now that I don't care about the recent anti-carbon fibre trend. I like it. I've liked carbon fibre since I was about 12 and spent all my money on CF radio control car parts.

The problem I'm having is that it seems like nearly all the carbon fibre parts on the market (honda market) are....well.....shitty. I've got a VIS carbon fibre hood on the car. The weave is ok, but it (like everything else I've found) has a super thick layer of gel coat/clear coat on it. It weighs nearly as much as a stock hood, and the clear will crack if any pressure is put on the hood. It doesn't fit worth a rat's shit either.

I've got the same issues with the spoiler on the back too. SUPER thick clear coat, not very light, and fit's worth a shit. The weave isn't great on the spoiler either. It's a Seibon piece. And neither the hood or the spoiler are strong....at all.


My question is just regarding if anybody out there makes high quality carbon fibre parts for Hondas. I'm not looking for super high gloss show car stuff. I know high quality carbon parts are more expensive, but this VIS and Seibon stuff is crap.
