Was wondering how will a hood from a NHBP civic will look on GG.

Hi, i was wondering if instead of buying a carbon fiber hood, just use one of the hoods out of a Night hawk black pearl civics, since the concep civic Si was silver and had a black hood and it look nice..

I think this should look good on a white civic and many of the civic colors.

And am thinking it should look good on GG, and also the black overlay roof and black part for the HFP.

Has anyone done this?

Here is a picture

I don't think it would look good on GG. The grey is really metallic and the black is more pearlescent

a stock hood costs $275 on hondapartsdeals.com

Yea but am sure there are many people with hoods they don't need, those with black cars and carbon fiber hoods(will be much cheaper then $275), am sure it will look nice but will have to try it first.

This is not my civic but it is a GG, i have it save on my pictures because i love his headlights. I hope the owner does not get mad at me posting his car picture, but thats it the only picture of a GG on a perfect angle that i have.


Can someone photoshop this with a NHBP civic hood?

lol i was thinking of buying someones hood that got a CF hood. its asm also but i was gonna paint it flat black lol..just play with it really..maybe put in a hoodscoop haha depends on how much he wants for it though lol. but i think the NHBP hood would look good..it is pearlescent..but its also got some metallic in it. i was thinkin about getting the black door handles and lip spoiler but never got around to it. and i think you asked what the hfp kit would look like..heres some photoshops i was thinking about doing..
