Carbon Fiber Hood Wrap

**AudiFamilyGuy06** · 07-25-2017 08:20 AM

Had this done about a month ago for my son. Much cheaper than actual carbon fiber hood and as maintenance free as it gets.

the point of a carbon fiber hood is to save front end weight.. and most are vented, which is meant for cooling purposes and to feed the intake direct. not for looks.

I understand the point, kid 18, car has 110k miles and previous owner tried to hide hood scratches with finger nail polish. He's not gonna race the thing and wanted it lo look better. It's all about what's under the hood anyway

that's accurate for about 10% of carbon fiber hood owners.

you sound like a cool dad haha

You must have raised a good kid. No way could I be responsible with an S4 at 18.

Hell, I'm 24 and still doing stupid shit on the road

Granted, I do it out in the middle of nowhere.

This is already his second Audi! First was a 2006 B7 A4 with the 3.2. Needed a bit more reliable (and fun and modifiable) transportation!

It looks too Ricer, think Fast & Furious 2001.

**jlaudio** · 07-25-2017 09:03 PM

Haha. I recognize the TILCON truck next to the car. 18 year old and drives an S4, he fit right in at SHS. I graduated SHS in 2004 and grew up in West Simsbury on Saddle ridge drive. Not a dig but just stating the obvious :)

**adamazing** · 07-25-2017 09:14 PM

Yup, looks like fake cf.

If he likes it, then good for him.

Congrats to your son! My older brother graduated AOF, class of 2002. Great school.

It is Fast -Stage 2, APR and TCU tune, 034 intake with ram air thru fog bezel, and its Furious - BCS valvetronic exhaust and H&R sports Springs.

Who cares if it looks real or not. You may only see the tail lights 🤣

You sound like an awesome dad... and your son sounds spoiled rotten! LOL

**DannyDeez** · 07-26-2017 07:02 AM

Not a fan of it, but props to you for being a cool dad. Do you have any other pics from different angles? There are some really good looking CF vinyl these days. Maybe a close up shot?

Those two things aren't always connected.. His Son doesn't sound like anything other than a kid with an Audi..

**FREEZE451** · 07-26-2017 07:45 AM

Pretty Sweet! I like the look of it. May not be performance based, but still looks cool.

Reminds me of my first car in high school, my dad got me a Datsun ( not Nissan ) pick up truck, and someone wrapped the fenders in duct tape to cover the rust. Times have sure changed for kids ( and dads ) , lol!

If you live and breathe these cars why wouldn't your kid be driving an audi if you can afford it?
My 5 year old already know who his first car will be. He also washes his R8 (pwr wheels) lol. He is learning to respect and take care of the nice things he has now in preparation for his first Audi ;)

Yes, but the question is "Would he wrap his R8 in Carbon Fiber?"
Any mods?
