to cf or not to cf

im thinking of getting a cf trunk lid. but im a little unsure, i love the way it looks and i think it would look good. a few othe people tell me get it and some tell me no. i would eventually get a cf door and maybe some cf accents inside. i cant to a cf hood b/c i got a custom paint job in the front.....lemme know what u think

I agree with the tacky.....It doesnt look right....I would just do the interior.....The dash and console and door panels would look sick in CF....You could also do your trunk, sub box etc....

Get a CF trunk and a CF hood and paint them both. Then you've got stock looking and you shed about 30 pounds.

a CF trunk only looks good on black cars IMO. it just looks weird in any other color. too much CF doesnt look all that great either

Having a CF trunk is not like having a CF hood. It's good as a hood because you can see all of it from one angle (i.e. it doesn't bend). It looks gay from behind in any color.

I do like the idea of CFing the whole car - but that would make it a theif magnet. Carbon fiber is not cheap.

NO! Bad Tom! lol

I think it would look tacky if you get that trunk unless you have the hood to go with it.

Are we OSORUNNINGOUTOFIDEAS for the car my nizzle?

Hmmm... you know what I think? I think it's time for the R34 headlight conversion, or maybe some gullwing doors?
