If that were the case then why offer 2 styles? It's for looks. I'm still looking for a well lit picture of the CF version. It's the difference between ordering this unit or the HKS.

A few things...

1) The CF option is not just for looks. It has a definite change it sound (for the better).

2) Having owned both, the quality of the FI kit is orders of magnitude higher. It's hard to describe until you see it in person. Not to say that the HKS isn't a good unit, but everything I have seen from FI is a work of art. Also, aesthetically I prefer the baffled look of the FI tips as opposed to the tin cans on the HKS.

3) Call up HKS if you need support/questions/etc, then call Tony. Enough Said.

Lastly...support the community vendors! They certainly support us.

i can take pictures of my CF later for you if needed. but the sound between the CF and SS should be the majority of the decision. maybe a 75/25 split between thoughts on sound then looks respectively. personally i love the CF look under my blue Z and then it just worked out perfectly since i wanted the exotic sound and thats what the CF offers over the SS.

worst case call Tony he's the best. he will talk you through any issues or questions you may have. or PM me directly. i will help anyone as much as i can.
