Default 370z Source Carbon Fiber Fang Review

So i been looking around to get a Carbon Fiber Fang Cover. Usually before i order i search the reviews on the vendors on this board, i saw a few on the 370source.com A few but not alot, all were positive, so i figured i'd add another for them.

Made an order on Monday, too late for it to be shippped out, so it was sent on tuesday, received Friday. FAAAAAAST!

Came all boxed up and inside was this

which had this

went on this bad boy






Overall:
Shipping was fast, installation was SUPER easy, clean area, remove 3m double tape, then i put a heater in front of it for about 20 mins. It is a tight fit, but a good fit none the less

**i would reccommend placing blue painters tape on the edges on the actual car, so that when you slide it on it won't scratch the paint.

Hey that looks real nice, been thinking about adding one to my black Z, along with a rear
piece to match and maybe door handles, thinking I don't want to much black-out.

That's what I'm planning to do:

CF Fang
CF Rear Valence
Blacked out handles (Done, needs to be fixed lol)
MRWorks Headlights
Tint the Blinker/Reverse area of the taillights. (Not smoking for 'murdered out')

Wow that looks amazing! And I can't believe it's less than 200 bucks.

2 questions. Is it removable? Just wondering in case you ever want to remove it to sell the car. My second question is that I am considering the Seibon carbon fiber hood (lots of chips on my hood now), and I think the CF fang would look awesome with the hood. However, since the CF fang isn't from Seibon (i'm guessing), wouldn't there be a good chance the hood and the fang would clash?

Thanks, Yes it is removable, that should be no problem, but for your second question someone else would have to chime in.
