Default need an opinion

Hey, my 96 EX got hit in the parking lot at work a while ago and it smashed my right fender. I am looking for replacement fenders, and I was thinking about getting some carbon fiber fenders so that i dont need to get them painted, i can bolt them on myself. I was wondering what brand, etc, you recommend. I want a good quality product that will last and will fit right so i can do it myself
THANKS

You should be able to find painted fenders for your car from a salvage yard. As long as your car is painted with a factory paint job, you should be able to match it pretty well if you have the patience to look around. It would probably be cheaper, too.

Personally, I think CF hoods and fenders look stupid on every car that isn't black. I'd still paint them. The benefit is supposed to be weight, not looks. CF is a beautiful material, but unfortunately it clashes on most every color car.
