I need your opinion!
Do you guys like Carbon on DB's? I'm thinking about getting some carbon items, but I'm not sure if it will take away or add to my car. Your expertise would help.

My radical idea for my ride if I dared to do it would have a two tone 350Z:
CF Hood
CF Front Bumper
CF Front Side Fenders
CF Side Skirt
Leave everything else original colour.
Something like this:

IMO carbon fibre
overlays are cheesey, so I personally wouldn't get CF unless it was actually replacing a panel.
I just realized I have a CF chin overlay myself!

Thanks for the input. I guess, I will hold off on the carbon.

Alvin,
Your car is so clean bro....
But IMO, I think the Hood, Hatch, Roof overlay would look great.
I say go for it!!!
Worst case scenario is that you part it out to me afterward...

i think its alright to get others imput on come things but you have to know that this is your ride man, not anyone elses. your the one making the payments and putting the gas in it. with that in mind, mod your car the way you perfer, this is your way in standing out and being different, if you like CF parts, then wrap your Z in it!! haha...
