Just got my JDMShit.com C/F parts!
I ordered the JDMShit.com carbon fiber hood and Spoon style mirrors from JDMShit.com on Mon. I got them today!
Hood: Excellent quality. Rolled edges. Clean latch. C/F is flawless! Well worth the $. I'll going to try to install it this weekend, and take pics!
Mirrors: Good stuff...not the genuine Spoon mirrors... but alot better than the Ebay crap. Fits great...look good. Only thing is they are manual, so I have to get used to that.
JDMShit.com = :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup:
I'll have pics up after Labor day!

Here is how i have always heard it. First off any weight is good to take off.
1. The best weight to take off is unsprung weight. This would weight around the wheels,tires, brakes and suspension pieces. Supposedly if you take one pound of unspung weight off it is supposed to feel like eight pounds was taken off.
2. The next best place to take weight off is in front of the A pilliar. Because our front wheel drive cars carry most of thier weight in the front,if you carve off some weight it helps with the balance of the car.
3.Getting rid of any weight is good.
