Well, time to go back to Afghan for several more month to save money to finish it off. I hope to have it done by summer of 2012.

Looks nice!!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks you all. As for color not sure. I was between black, blue, orange but nothing selected as of now still looking.

Is that a carbon fiber hood I spy?
What supplier did you go with? Were they easy to deal with?
What are you expectations for how the carbon fiber hood will look once painted car color (I noticed it has been primed). In other words, will it hold color and luster with equal durability as the metal surrounding it?

Looking good so far.
Thanks for posting pics.

Yes, it is CF hood. You have a good eye! I got it through ebay about a year ago. I can remember the supplier but I'll try to find info on it. The only thing I did not like about it was it did not fit to the curve of the back(latch side). A little to flat but it taken care off. As for paint once it is sealed and prime up they should not be any problem matching the rest of the car.

THX for your input on the CF hood. If I go that rout there are several vendor choices. DeftRacing seems to be the lowest cost. They're out of LA.

Glad to see another Rx2 being saved...the R100, 2, and 3 are some of the coolest cars. Good Job on your car dude! Looking forward to seeing it done!

rx2t 07-16-12 02:01 AM

Thanks, I can wait to see it done but with I working overseas it wil be a while. For now just stocking the parts.
