Default Opinions on Carbon Fiber Front Fenders

Well I know of a company thats making light weight Carbon fiber front fenders.

They were asking me if they should leave the indentaion on the fender for the Z emblem or just take it out to save weight.

Would you guys perfer the CF fenrders with a emblem or perfer them without?

The side emblem is the only emblem on the car that I actually like, but I prefer none.

I prefer them on........(so you can install Evo-R's Z4 LED Side Markers) Actually, either way the Z4 LED side markers can be install with or without the indentaion.

Read somewhere that those fenders are actually pretty heavy -- this may be a significant weight reduction.

Looking forward to hearing more details!

the thing about it is ... if you leave the indentation off people that dont like it can leave it off, and people that like it can still add the emblem farely easily.
