As the title says, I'm just looking for a picture of any Emerald Blue S14 sporting a CF hood.

Thanks,
-Dustin

take notes:
1. both of you are newbies
2. both of you are asking for pics of a certain thing
3. the same thing that happened in that thread, will most likely happen in yours

hey guys, I was wondering if i could get a picture of a black 180sx lowered exactly 3.455623 inches, with bridgestone potenzas (225/45/17) on some 17 inch watanabes, with about 50% tread on the back tires, with the N1 Dual exhausts and 35% tinted windows, outside of the Atlanta Georgia courthouse on an overcast tuesday afternoon.

Thanks,
-Pank

does anyone have a pic of a toyota echo with a camry front end conversion w/ cf hood thx

dwillms · 06-02-2005, 12:38 AM

Wow, didn't know everyone on these boards were so anal. Seems to me most people are happy to show off pictures of their ride on every other forum that I'm a part of.

It's not like I'm asking for the most obscure S14 ever, or a completely generic 'Show me some nice cars' post either. I was very specific in stating exactly what I was looking for, and I'm only spending my time to ask because I haven't been able to find a picture yet and I'm thinking about purchasing a CF hood.

I've went through every picture on every page of the Sticky 'Picture' thread, spent about half an hour searching both Emerald Blue cars and CF hood threads, and another half-hour browsing through the Gallery already, all with no luck.

Oldie, but nonetheless:

It's a blue carbon weave.

SimpleS14 · 06-02-2005, 06:04 AM

This is not my car, and I'm pretty sure its not in the picture thread.

Gjohnson7 · 06-02-2005, 07:44 AM

I don't remember him asking for a pic with hood pins. What kinda crap are you trying to pull here?? J/K

Kouki · 06-02-2005, 12:39 PM

He also asked for blue, not green.

Well I'll help you out, here is a pic of my starfire blue S14 with a carbon hood.

Ian · 06-02-2005, 12:43 PM

i hope you are joking

you do know what an emerald is right?

the car in simples14's pics *is* emerald blue...

dwillms · 06-02-2005, 08:28 PM

Thanks for those who took the time to help me out by posting some pics, I appreciate it. I'm still torn on the CF hood, it looks great, but it's also quite a bit of money that I could rather use to go towards a KA-T setup or SR20 swap. I also don't like the look of hood pins, but without them you are just asking for somebody to swipe the thing.

If I do end up going CF, I will be sure to post some pics of how it turns out.

Next time you are going to contribute, please spend the extra 3 minutes to spell-check your posts. You show a great lack of respect for everybody browsing the boards by making them try to decipher your jabber.

Thanks again everybody,

You do know its extremely easy to take hoodpins off, right? they're not there to prevent it from getting stolen, they're there to prevent it from ripping the latch off and flying off the car.

The color of my car happens to be Emerald Blue...so yea...I know what he's looking for.

Kouki · 06-02-2005, 11:17 PM

Ok, sorry about that. I saw the blue in emerald blue, and just thought blue. I didn't even think about the emerald part of it.

Didn't mean to insult anyone. I guess I'm the idiot now!

SochBAT · 06-03-2005, 01:02 AM

I've never liked my Zenki cuz the headlights always seemed a tinted yellow or something. That makes that car unattractive to me.

Emerald, isn't that like, deep blue with a hint of green?

chlatboy · 06-03-2005, 03:06 AM

Zenkis rock!! I got a zenki!!!

North240 · 06-03-2005, 03:55 PM

This thread is full of randomness, but to offer advice on what to do, DO NOT get rid of a perfectly good OEM hood for what will most likely be a crappy CF hood, its not worth it. The $400 or so you'll spend would be put to better use for suspension parts or anything non-body related.

tryiian · 06-05-2005, 04:04 AM

not to be an "anal zilvian" but it`s blue emerald... blue emerald *pearl*. FN2, is the code for it iBelieve.

also, iDon`t have a carbon hood or anything but just for the sake of showin off my car (and my nice spot of curb rash): www.thedaemonofid.com/shan

don't listen to him! CF hoods are awesome. the oem hood is junk. therefore, you should give it to me for free when you get a cf hood.

It's a deep green with a hint of blue and purple according to the shade of light. Also, yea its called Blue Emerald..but I still don't get why someone would add "pearl" to the name. This is because its only a basecoat and clearcoat...no midcoat (or pearl) is added.

i got my cf hood for $215 made by carbon creations. had to do a tiny bit of work to get it on but it looks great. found it on ebay. sell ure stock hood for 100 bucks and then the hood becomes even less expensive

Is it just me or do a lot of 240SX owners lack basic imagination?
