the international association of honda bros agrees with the statement that carbon hoods are indeed still sick even though you are 20 years late to the trend

20 years later they still fit poorly

Stick with the spoon hood. It's "period correct" which is the reason this build started in the first place.

The problem is, this hood is not period correct. You could see through the original spoon hoods, they were much thinner and lighter. Pretty desirable and more expensive than the new one Matt got, you can still order these from spoon.

In not sure if I'm weird or something but I love the look of CF parts on cars, it almost gives the color scheme more contrast, makes it look more diverse and the CF pattern makes it look tough IMO. It shouldn't just be a thing of the past.

Leave it carbon my little Honda bro lol. Looks good with the CTR lights and the OE fogs. CF Spoon mirrors would set it off. Btw, I've had this car since 99, you and I are about the same age, so I'm biased to this look lol. HIN baby!

Best part is.. Matt is enjoying building this and im glad he has a soft spot for hondas and good named parts and style. Keep it up Matt. Love the videos

Scuff it with gray scotchbrite and scuff paste...and put 2 coats of Sikkens Clearcoat. It will fill the scratches and give the resin a super nice layer of UV PROTECTION. I am a professional Auto refinisher, and do this to all of my personal Carbon Fiber sport bike peices.

there would be nothing left after the first pass of scotchbrite. Think more like 2500 grit wet sanding

Hands down the Best EM1 build going down on planet earth!! Can’t wait to see all of that Carbon fiber, in all of its “Spoon” Glory

I’m glad the winner will get the original hood. 😂

I am completely amazed with it, your living my dream

Matt the Carbon compliments the Electron Blue perfectly. I have a feeling more than 75% are going to approve of a Spoon Carbon Hood. Great work 🤙🏻

At the end of the day it’s your car , and I love the channel and my favorite thing is the Honda so keep on going family love it

The difference between Matt now vs Matt from 5 years ago is astounding. Matt, you seem much happier now that you have Bryce and the other OG people working for you and being part of the journey. I don’t think I’ve seen Matt laugh as genuinely on video before.

Best intro yet to the Honda!! 😆😆 "its my car and I can do what I want to it!"

Keep it Matt! Fits the car very well, especially if you add carbon fiber mirrors. Everything will compliment each other with the dark gun metal wheels.

Your em1 is sweet! The spoon carbon fiber hood is perfect touch. The te37 are nice! This civic coupe was Hondas best built coupe they ever made! I want this em1!

Who cares how good or bad it looks - We can see how much joy this brought you! The cheeky laughs were just great 😎

I love all the parts so far keeping them coming

Man, it looks damn good! Take the hood to a bodyshop so they can sand it and reclear it if the scratches are bothering you! Definetly love carbon parts on cars!

Matt that hood looks really good you brought me back to when I was in high school and that was all the rage if I want that car I would keep the hood on...

Wow man. This is very encouraging. Makes me wanna bring my em1 back out...

Im glad you hit up Art of Attack. It's really cool you listen to your viewers

Keep it on. That hood is awesome and I hope to get one for my EK Hatch

I think everything eventually fades to art. These mods are quality mods and those will always time stamp the car well in automotive history. People look at an old Datsun with watanabes for example, and just get that wholesome nostalgia. I'm here for this build and giveaway!!!!

Loveeeeeeee the hood and completely get the look growing up with import tuner, turbo mag and sport compact car. I think the overall look is soooo clean.

I LOVE this!!! Awesome addition to the civic

Sick!!!!! I love the look!! Art of Attack always has the goods. I love they're down the street from me

Spoon Sports are usually spot on with fitment. “Not my 1st rodeo”. Leaves the hood prop on, ha.

Love how you're enticing the modern day Honda kids 😆

Hello,you can sand it and apply another layer of clear coat,it will not improve the fit but it will improve the finish.Very excited about this build too😁

Looking awesome EM1! Always wanted one!

Could always have a trusted paint shop sand the gelcoat flat and have it cleared! That gelcoat regardless of its supposed “UV-resistance” isn’t gonna last in the sun, so it’d be a good idea regardless. Then painting the front clip wouldn’t be necessary.

This actually looks so clean, might be the most expensive civic I've ever seen LOL

Dope, love the new hood.

“What up my little Honda bro’s” love it

You need to put the hanging dice on the rearview mirror.....lol . Can you add more beans to my rice please!! Love it!

Spoon hood omg, +200 style points best jdm class at HIN. All Matt needs is a XXXL pro club white T dress and backwards hat. The Spoon hood only way to go though. Love it

I really like it, i think every thing you have done has been tasteful.

Matts face when doing this mod 😁👌

Don’t take off the cf hood. Looks awesome. Had a cf hood unpainted on my 2000 celica gt-s back in 2000 after getting it new. Loving this build.

I grew up at the same time. I don’t care what anyone says, that is just about the most period correct mod you could do and it looks perfect!

I usually don’t comment but the spoon hood is the most beautiful thing I’ve ever seen

Looks amazing. I dig it!

Looks nice! Good job!

Don’t listen to the hate Matt!! That’s carbon fiber hood is period correct for the build your trying to accomplish. And it looks sick with the wheels. Also, we all had a CF hood in the 90’s-00’s, just couldn’t afford a spoon one. It being a spoon hood ups the cool points anyways. Can’t wait for the engine swap in this thing.

Hell yeah I remember when I was younger and always wanted one but never had the funds so I always got my hoods painted black of course this was years ago keep it carbon

I love the carbon hood! Looks great!

Looks nice, matches the wheels too!

Little Honda bro’s 🤣.. looks good

I would love that car, this has been a dream car of mine since I was like 14yrs old.

I personally run vis cf hood on mine and I love it gives me that old school feel and look

I like the 'little honda bros' at the start

Optimum Clear Coat Restorer would have been a good option for this good, wet sand with 3000 grit, compound, then apply OCCR. Use it on my CF parts to help provide additional UV protection to the resin and improve cosmetics. Once that stuff dries it almost as hard as a traditional clear coat.

Love the carbon hood! Keep it up!

Looking at the carbon, si blue, and the wheels. It’s stunning

*Looks tight. That Blue and Black is nice to contrast.*

hood looks on point all we need now is a matching trunk to dial it in to perfection haha

Oooffff, love the carbon fiber hood and yessss leave it exposed. No painting it!!! Damn it changed the whole car! And with a carbon mirrors too!!! Whaaaaaa!! Good call Matt!!

I love the unpainted carbon hood, I was in the 90's car scene lol. I'm still rocking my unpainted Seibon CF hood on my S13.

Considering it’s at the front of the car, that’s pretty good weight saving. And you can say it’s an authentic spoon hood lol

This is the cleanest one I have seen since 99 00.

So clean omg😮

This is the 00s move right here man 😁

24k in audio. That's completely fine. Painting the front clip, whoa... That's too much. 😂

Looks amazing man... if definitely go for the mirrors and trunk also. My friend in Ohio has a full sebion carbon front end and doors including trunk also on his 2000 em1. Looks amazing. He might even sell it lol

Honestly going for that nostalgic 90’s look the hood fits the car. Still looks good even although I am more partial to the stick hood. I’m just happy it’s not a vented over the top style hood 😂

Looks great!

That em1 stupid clean wit the mods it has by this point i want it

EM1 ALWAYS WANTED ONE ..SUPER CLEAN

I think it’s cool as hell man honestly

I did the same thing with my evo some years ago and installed the Do Luck evo x duckbill trunk. Left it unpainted maybe a month just for fun.

I agree with the guy below always liked the carbon look.

Need you that h badge on the grill in my opinion to top it off man. Such a beautiful car

This thing def has a retro feel but in all honesty, the retro feel is the new 2020 style 😎

Carbon fiber PPF on roof and add carbon wing! This is a fun project. Love it

It looks great. Can't beat carbon on Honda Civics!!!!

I like the look if the CF hood!

Dat blue is awesome!

I'd have to see it in person to judge the look, from video perspective i dig it. Needs some more carbon fiber bits tho

I think this is my favorite honda ever

good god this car looks amazing

Back when I worked in shop(Late 90s) we use to paint the side of hood where it meets fenders same color as car and clear entire hood keeping center carbon fiber use to look sick.

Matt, I absolutely love this series of you working on this thing. You're doing a supreme job with this car and I love your jokes in it. Please keep it up. Fuck everyone and keep it fiber, don't paint it.

Dude I had a carbon hood on my gsx.... Was killer bro!!!

I love this. Don't paint it. All you're missing is the underglow and you're living the dream

Paint sides of hood only to body color ala e46 vorsteiner style? I dunno, I kinda dig it. It’s definitely period correct, that’s for sure. Only reason I suggest to paint sides is to help hide fitment issues and imperfections in the clear.

Love it!!

Not even a full 30 seconds, this guy says "Screw you, it's my car and I do what I want." I really, really, like this man.

This is going to be the coolest 100K Civic

I love the new hood 👍👍👍

Love that color.

Looks great! Honda bro ✌️

Looks Dope

Do all the ek9 spoon parts: radiator, brake lines, carbon hood etc work for the EM1 Si?

Looks good to me, that was the style back then OG, triple OG.

Dig deeper into the J.C. Whitney/Pep Boys catalog and go for the A-pillar gauges and coffee-can tail pipes and you'll have a real racer-boy ride.

How’re you liking that polisher? Or you still prefer the rupes 3?

Nice to see Spoon products close up. Only hood on the market with a plain weave which is more classy than twill (IMO). Kinda the only option if you already have the mirrors too. Spoon's carbon edges have always looked kinda crumby. Every spoon carbon product I've seen is like this. Even mirrors which were made in 2019 were like that. Just part of their process.

I guess it's time for the spoon cluster gauge? 😍 What do you think honda bros? 😁 Or a mugen cluster? Since it's spoon on the outside. And you have the mugen seats!

It look 👍... i think with the carbon fiber mirrors will be great. Its JDM all day
