The problem is how quickly the Tifosi run to attack an opinion

These options are bling and rice. Owners are free to do what they want - it is after all their money, but why the standard of accepting CF engine decor as OK for Tifosi, but tacky rice for Civic owners?

Of course, the materials a car is made from are not under quesiton, and if this was an option to replace structural components with better/lighter/stroner ones to improve the car performance then ok - but jst to stick some eye candy over the top.. hehehe

Be honest - it shouts out "poser" and bling hehe

RC45, its only an option. And besides, only Americans will probably buy it anyway

/\/\/\Meh its subte to be called rice, plus its a sports car, a civic with carbon bits on the other hand just doesnt make sense.

+1

I suspect the latter is the case.

A Civic 1.5 EX sedan with the SOHC VTEC-E motor and stick-on carbon-effect door trim? Fo-shizzle akzizzle

A Spoon tuned EK Type-R with a Carbon Fibre hood? I would say that was a reasonable use of CFRP.

The point is being missed here, doesnt matter if it's a civic OR an F430, just the fact that you are adding bling (beit chrome or CFRP) OR enhancing performance.
