RCZ,

Are you holding out for the full-body 370Z CF cover kit? ;)

RCZ 04-12-2009 02:24 PM
haha only if its completely made out of vinyl and there is no carbon involved ;) jk

sigh, its so bad to add weight with carbon...its the ultimate poser move.

If I could replace a few bits with carbon I would though. Some body pieces would be nice to switch out like the hood. It's heavy and we need to take weight off the front/high on the car. If someone makes an actual carbon roof, I'd be all over that.

:iagree:

Maybe I should get some carbon fiber gaming mice for my computer? :P
I agree, carbon fiber is nice when it serves a purpose, but just getting it for looks is not.

And I heard fake covers make Jesus cry. Just sayin. You don't want that baggage.

honestly, the people who will get this will be because they want a different look to the car. it does not look bad. but if you have some scratched up pillars or mirrors, this might be a very cheap alternative to replacing those parts.

i for one, would like to get these for my pillars because i think the carbon fiber looks better than the black. i have a PG btw.

I would much rather swap out the mirrors that are made in CF.

If you're going to add weight to the car, might as well add some carbon fiber with some style::tup:
