Yea that's not a bad idea either. I agree with DDMotorsports, that is a cut along the dotted line. If nothing else find someone good with working with carbon fiber and have one made just for it.

IIRC, they do this with the Altima Coupe. Not sure why the Z wouldn't get the same treatment.

I was going to do the same with the front bumper by having the fangs and lip painted matte black. Since I'm getting Platinum Graphite, it doesn't look too bad even with a CF lip like Mine's. Therefore, I may leave the fangs alone.
