im a fan of dressing up my car a little bit to my liking so i dont mind CF bits or overlays if done with taste. it's basically like painting your bits but it's done with simulated CF or real CF weaves.

who the hell's kidding themselves thinking that a few lbs is going to make any difference on a street driven car anyway. :rofl2:

if im going to be racing my car on the track it would be setup VERY differently.

Why are you painting your bits? That's just weird. :icon18:

People do it to make it look different from others? More unique? :ugh2:

I think CF is really ugly. It reminds me of the fad from about 25 years ago when the ricers wanted to "white out" everything on their cars. But, as they say, to each his own.

Might be ugly, but it's light and fast!

But don't you find it ironic that we overlay / wrap / cover all this stuff with a product that it's main advantage is weight savings? ...

"We" do? I like mine just fine the way it came from the factory, no CF on mine.

I'm not a CF hater either, and I bet most all of those who do use it are doing so for the "look", not the weight savings.

Theres a Guy local to me with a White Nismo. He decided to use some shitty CF wrap on his spoiler, Roof and front bumper If i remember right. It looked terrible. I couldnt understand why someone would take a 40kish Z and add something that looked worse than Brittney Spears' Vag to a Nice car.

It's all about personal taste and making your car look a little different.

I don't like gloss-coated cf or black rims, but there are plenty of guys who do. Then again, I'm sure my mods aren't everyone's idea of good taste either.

If we all liked the same thing, it would be a pretty boring world.

I've got to admit to being amused by the whole Plasti-Dip phenomena. For years, the cheaper versions of cars came with black door handles, mirrors, and bumpers. Now guys are doing just that to their 40k+ Z's. Again, personal choice.
