korpsepatrol Posted November 4, 2007 Share Posted November 4, 2007 Sorry for not having the pics of one but wanted to know what you guys thought about the idea of a carbon fiber hood on a LGT? FYI I don't have one but the thought crossed my mind. 2008 6mt Legacy Gt Spec B DGM - Not so Stock/Work in progress 2006 5mt Legacy Gt OBP - Sold 2005 5eat Legacy Gt OBP - RIP R.I.P Coxx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ejoy1220 Posted November 4, 2007 Share Posted November 4, 2007 Rice. Even painted is rice. $500 to save like 25lbs could be much better spent elsewhere on the car. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rkl303 Posted November 4, 2007 Share Posted November 4, 2007 +1 Odds are lots of drivers could go on a diet and shave 25lbs and save money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

whitetiger Posted November 5, 2007 Share Posted November 5, 2007 pointless and ugly and a waste of money. the only reason to get one, is if your stock hood gets damaged and you need a replacement. and even then, you should have it painted.

-TT- Posted November 5, 2007 Share Posted November 5, 2007 rice for sure unless you paint it OBP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DiscoWagon Posted November 5, 2007 Share Posted November 5, 2007 If it's lighter than the stock hood and painted, not rice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-TT- Posted November 5, 2007 Share Posted November 5, 2007 it's those people that want to be seen with CF that are rice IMO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Gitster Posted November 5, 2007 Share Posted November 5, 2007 You know me too well...damn... Thx everyone for the complete shooting down of that idea... back to the drawing board... As far as upgrades go, this should be last on your list. And its not for a daily driver. If you are making a road course car to race with SCCA and your last resorts to making the car faster is weight reduction, then it is certainly not rice. But in your case, you have to be at least stage 2 before thinking along those lines :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

praedet Posted November 5, 2007 Share Posted November 5, 2007 ^^^Exactly. There is not any reason other than looks to put it on. So, it will always be rice Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vimy101 Posted November 5, 2007 Share Posted November 5, 2007 and the GT hood is aluminum Aren't 08 hoods steel now? Thought I read somewhere that Subaru went back to steel because of high Al price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
