Too Much CF! (Poll Inside)

Amir87 · 12-01-2009, 01:24 AM

Today, I feel like I have too much CF on my car. Never thought I'd be saying this.

So far I have CF splitters,grills,hood,mirrors,roof,trunk,quad diffuser.

What do you think of the new CF grills?

CF or Matt Black

or Matt Black

Craig@SupremePower · 12-01-2009, 01:26 AM

Is your hood real CF or just an overlay/wrap?

Because if it were fake, then I would say you are over doing it with CF Grill

But since it is real, go balls out with the Grill as well

E92murdered · 12-01-2009, 01:42 AM

i would paint the hood leave the opening cf and leave grill cf would be sweettt!!

funkedelic · 12-01-2009, 01:43 AM

not feelin the kidneys are much. Maybe its getting a bit excessive but CF is sweet. Pics of the rear of the car?

I will have it on my diffuser/interior trim/front lip

iAerodynamic · 12-01-2009, 01:48 AM

Yeah, I think it may be too much too. Just installed them tonight, maybe they will look better in the open and in the daytime.

Here's my diffuser (exhaust tips were re-aligned later):

Carbon is best when used as an accent, not a main portion. Matte black grills for sure, and perhaps black and white roundels as well. Leaving the hood raw looks good on SG.

SiKkBaSs · 12-01-2009, 09:07 AM

Your car looks sickk mate. Leave it as it is. CF looks mean as fcuk!

JayKay335i · 12-01-2009, 09:33 AM

tooo much.

GT1281 · 12-01-2009, 10:40 AM

To much. It's a BMW not an Integra. No offense.

Tee212 · 12-01-2009, 10:52 AM

at cf

SV Concepts III · 12-01-2009, 11:39 AM

Yeah too much CF there, go with Matte Black.

Hedges · 12-01-2009, 11:57 AM

E92-Lighting · 12-01-2009, 01:24 PM

go with matte black grilles

truCarbon · 12-01-2009, 02:21 PM

Matte black for sure, I agree with MuchMoore's comment on CF being an accent. I sometimes have clients that want their trim, steering wheel, and rear seats wrapped with CF. Although it makes me more money, I try and talk them out of it. It is there to compliment rather than overpower.

TT3 iN NyC · 12-01-2009, 02:35 PM

yes, way too much CF. Matte black grills.

Is that a real VRS V-35 hood or the ****** replica of what looks like a V-35 hood?
