Wow...when you posted the picture of the wheels i thought they looked like absolute crap. In my opinion, applying fake carbon fiber to a car truly cheapens it.

When you posted the picture of the wheels on the car it really changed my opinion...I wanted to kill myself. I got up, and headed outside to shoot myself in the face (because i didn't want to get blood on the carpet). On my way outside i thought, "wait a minute, that's not my car. Why should i kill myself?"

Luckily i was able to save my life, but my opinion stays the same. If i ever do see them in person, i pray that i do not have any type of weapons with me, as i don't know what i would have to do.

So...I guess i don't like them.

Adding fiberglass wings to your car so it looks like a plane would be unique (and possibly expensive), however it wouldn't look good and you shouldn't do it.

It doesn't work on that car. I like your other interior pices (and can handle B pillars and mirror corners on the exterior), and I really do try not to harp on mods that people do, even if I think they are tacky, but CF wheels are beyond tacky. They are "pink **** carpeting on the dash and headliner" tacky. If you're unable to see that it looks terrible, trust someone else. Even if someone asks you to do this for them, I urge you to stop them for all that is not evil in the world.

All that car needs now are a few wings to complete the look for maximum "being laughed at."

It just looks like someone slapped on a sticker. I wouldn't get that if I were you.
