It's a forum bud, get used to some people liking it, and some people not liking it. I make fun of alvin all the time for having all show and no go (even for an automatic). He makes fun of me all the time for having all go, and no show. Everyone has different tastes. If everyone had the same taste. We would only need 1 sedan, 1 coupe, 1 van, 1 truck, 1 suv. Everything would be the same color too. Ever see the movie equilibrium? It would be just like that. Me personally, I would have gone a little bit of a different route, but that's just me. The spoiler, I would have gotten a little bit taller 1. Probably a nismo v1 wing in full carbon fibre. The door handles, I just got done getting painted instead. I like the B pillers though.

CF accents can look good when tastefully used, like in the engine bay or interior. It can also be functional like body panels, splitters, wings, etc... Fake CF-look shit is the gayest, but CF overlays that apply with adhesive aren't much better imo.

You posted pics, so you're gonna have to man up and deal with those that have a different opinion.

that's pretty ricey IMO. That fujita sticker also screams out "i have a cold air intake". I like the pillars though.

What's with you and gay? Are you incompetent to the point of unable to use anything else for a comeback?

As for your new CF parts yes I also think the cf door handle is tacky and doesn't fit on a Z. You put up pictures, you should be expected to receive positive and negative feedback - deal with it. CF spoiler and pillars are nice but the door handles are bad, we can't sugar coat everything for you, if we do then it'd be lying and leading you down the rice-out path and I won't have that on my conscience.

I would personally paint the door handles black. Everything else looks good however.

but you act like you weren't going to get a response by calling people gay because of their opinion? I think you are the one that needs to chill out.

well, you post pics up of your CF parts for peoples' opinions.... you find that you didnt like the feedback you were getting... then you call everyone gay... then you say you were just kidding about calling people gay... ???

sometimes, less is more...

no worries. It's just different on the internet you know? You can't tell how a person is saying something with a bunch of letters and words on computer screen.
