Thanks guys for your comments!

Total including the price of the car I think the total is around $15-16k

The roof is black for..uhhh..no particular reason. I'm going to add a carbon hood and hatch so its for cosmetic reasons..

The color is Imola Orange, 2006 NSX and JDM AP1 S2000.

Just curious. It looks kinda neat and I'm sure that a CF duckbill and hood will bring it out even more. Cool idea.

Definitely keep those pics coming. :goodjob:

I really like the way the CWest Civic looks with them so I got a set. They really dont bother me but everyone has been giving me heat about it. I took them off when I was in the shop yesterday to see what it looks like with out them... I dunno...we'll see. I think it's tough to pull of the eyelids but if you can it looks sick, in my case I think it looks pretty damn good.

FYI, if you haven't done it already, I suggest replacing that woven tubing they give you for the oil catch can with steel braided or radiator hose. That stuff gets too hot in the engine compartment and will cave in on itself. At least, mine did.
