Take the piece off of the front bumper any it will look a lot better. I was thinking about doing that too. I got sponsored by a vinyl Co. I wonder if you can put a clear coat on it..

IMO the top half and hatch would look great. Now a pic of the foglights on.

I'm wondering how this compares to 3M. Saw it on eBay yesterday and it's cheaper per foot.

I can appreciate that. instead of a flat black vinyl wrap this looks much better.

Real carbon fiber looks ugly. Fake CF looks worse.

imo you car was perfect to (who ever's body kit taste), had everything from bbk to proper rims and the body. now you added that vinyl, which is just fail. i would understand the vinyl on the roof, but not the hood. just spend 500$ and get a cf hood, they are not that expensive and is actually lighter.

I actually have a Kaminari CF hood underneath the vinyl. I wanted to have a black matte look.

I like it! I'd continue the theme by doing the pieces below your headlights.
