Yeah on 2nd thought I think I'm gonna leave the emblems and focus on the wheels and door handles (to leave a tiny bit of contrast).

The Z store has some nice carbon fiber door handle covers but it says they're held on with....2 sided tape? Is that normal?

Yup, this is normal.. the only company i know that does true carbon fiber builds/molds is carbon fiber creations.. you send your oem pieces, they send you carbon fiber pieces in return.

The carbon fiber trim that you can buy from what I've seen, like 90% of it is held on by double sided sticky tape.

I don't think I can just drive around without doorhandles can I. I really don't want "stick-on" crap though.

Yeah, see the only problem with that stick on stuff is, thats really the only thing out there.. it looks good, but it can easily be stolen, especially around here.

Saw a grey Z with dark grey rims at a gas station in Glen Burney last night. I was a passenger in a CRX when we passed by . Nice car.

Actually I need to change that. I actually just painted them last Saturday. Took pretty much the whole day. We started at around 10:30 AM and finished around 8 PM. Most of that was just waiting for it to dry though. Did it with Rob's help. We took breaks for lunch and dinner and even watched a movie.
