Either that or you're 12 years old...... :nono:

No, I'm not 12...yet.

Dude tell me that the carbon fiber pieces for most guys aren't just for looks.

No one ever tricks out their ride to impress their friends, right?

At least some of it is outdoing your buddies, that's all I'm saying. If carbon fiber added weight after it was all said and done, I'd probably still buy it.

At least I'm being honest.

Seems like everybody is so afraid to admit to what they like, for fear of getting flamed. Go ahead flame me, I don't care.

So just call me tacky, I like carbon fiber, especially kevlar :madfawk: This is Supramania, people love to get the flame-thrower out.

Sorry I've never built a car to impress anyone other than me.....

Car parts as a fashion statement is a joke.

I'm not going to flame anyone I have no idea what makes you think I would in this case my question was serious.

For me it's always been "Form Follows Function"

That's cool, I think we all build them for ourselves, first and formost, but it's nice to get positive reactions from other people. I think it makes most people feel good when their work is noticed and appreciated.

As far as car parts as a fashion statement being a joke, that's cool too, some people feel differently and that doesn't make them idiots or jokes. We all have our own reasoning for what, and why, we do what we do. It takes all kinds. :icon_bigg

That yahoo page is interesting but i'd be hesitant before going out and buying a $1,400 part based on someone's recomendation that has one post and joined yesterday. I'm not trying to rip on you, but its just kinda.... yeah. Anyways, once i get onto my laptop, i can email the yahoo japan sellers in nihongo and see what they have to say!
