I need yalls input. Some bum hit my car this weekend and screwed up my hood. I was gonna just take it to the $99 special but i dont want it to look stupid. I got another quote for $350 to fix the hood and bumper, paint included. Then I can always get a CF one off of ebay or another cheap one. Also I'm in the delima of what to do to my car next. I have a intake and cat-back, system, and euro's. Any suggestion would help me out alot. Thanks!

sell the euros and save up for header, and fuel system, or swap/turbo

what justin said sounds good to me.. save up for bigger things... an get rid of the euro's... just keep your stock ones on there, they look better than the aftermarket crap that is out now...

ya that is true, the s-types do look good on the 96-97's but not realy that great on the 94-95's ithink it is that little extra peic they get on the trunk.. but if you wanna go custom, try an get ahold of the euro accord typ-R's tails that will stand out, an while your at it if yo got th efour door, get the rear doors as well they got the cool extra window thing.... :D that is what i wanna try an do... just gotta save the money instead of spending it on usless crap/....

ah you got that color.. black current i think it is called.thats the color i wanted to get my car in.. that color will look so FUCKING good with the CF hood, trust me an as for wich hood to get, might as well order the real VIS hood oem style is the best one IMO i think you can get it with or without the washer nozzel holes in there.. i dont have the holes in mine looks good... (dont be lazy just use a squegy to clean the windsheild) lol who needs sprayers anymore, lose the hole system in all.... the VIS comes in carbon carbon...(that means CF on both sides) instead of CF on one an fiberglass on the other....

I've looked on ebay and this is what i've come up with, tell me what you think. I have to justify this so i have to get one under 350. I believe i can save some on shipping by using my works account with UPS ( PPL on ebay always rip you on ship'n). I'll let you know which one i get, but let me know what y'all think about these:

Let me know so i can order one and get it put on, sould only take a couple of hours i hope. I also have to order some brembo rotors, my stock wrap like crazy. How do you like yellow calipers will look? Whoa, im full of ?'s tonight. Keep me filled in on any VA/NC meets going on, i only like like 1hr from martinsville, VA. there i go again, gotta stop, must sleep.

with shipping you are going to be paying alot more then what you wanna spend on either of those hoods.... for $50 more you could get the VIS carbon carbon hoods...!! but that is my opinion.... i honsestly dont like either of them myself.. i would just get the factory OEM style with shaved washer squirters.. but thats my opinion again... but if i hadto chose from just those two, then i would have to go with the double vented invader hood...

Thanks for the input JDM. But I won't have to pay that much shipping because i'm using my works account to get shipped in. That way i will only pay lil instead of alot. About the VIS hood, i would love to get a real one but the cash aint there for that. I just had knee surgury and got that bill, wish i could have got that off ebay LOL. I dont really like have the stock look'n cf hood, whats the fun in that. I guess its just what ever your style is uh. I am looking to get it sometime this week and when i put it one ill try to post some pics.
