I know someone makes them for the 3rd gen integra, but from your post...I guess you have a 93 teg right? I was thinking of getting one, but haven't yet located one either. Its purely for looks, but nowing the cost of all CF parts, the money could easily be better spent on a performance part. just my .02 cents.

the fuel door weighs less than half a pound. and just having a piece of carbon fiber in what is actually quite a random spot would look funny.

yeah, its all about reducing weight, morons. cuz you save a whole 10 lbs on your hood too.... that will give you what? like .0001 on your 1/4 mile... 100 lbs = .1 - .01 of a second... so who's gonna tell me thats worth 400-500+ bucks... this is for a show car... i didnt ask for flames all i asked is if anybody knows where i can find one.

yes it is to match my hood.

Kauai Kane - let me know more info about makin me one please.

If you don't want flames tell us you are building a show car and need it to match your hood! Atleast now it actually makes sense that you want a CF fuel door...a little more info in the future please, it will save you the flames.

My first thought was maybe his fuel door broke off and he decided to replace it with a CF one...why not?
