In the past, I've always wish my car was Bogeta Beige like everyone else so putting CF parts wouldn't look tacky as opposed on a Gold beige car. Seeing yours, DangerDANJ, Galantv600, Icedout, and couple others really pull it off. The only other CF inspiration from a gold colored G was Prophet but if I look back on what I went through, the color just doesn't flow well with CF. That's why I'm changing my game to resemble more like NJFudge's car: calm and subtle. If I did this style way back, I couldn't imagine how much money I could of saved on much bigger things... :facepalm:
CF = Expensive.
I would rather have your color car.Quote:

but for the most part with paint cost etc it does even itself out usually
Yeah that is true. I dont think I would ever put a part on my car without a 3stage paint. I used to work at a body shop so if I do all labor myself they will just charge me materials. They are slow on Saturdays so I could borrow the booth for like an hour.Quote:

Hehe Im not a big cf fan, it looks clean, but I am planning on getting a cf hood and color matching it, I just like my titanium gray :)Quote:

Like the wheels on there, looks good, but not feeling the stretched tires on 18's, looks better on 19"s or 20"s IMO bcz of less sidewall height...Quote:

Unless your trying to race your car, I don't think your saving much weight. Pointless investment to me.
