I think it looks nice. Not to my taste but I do enjoy seeing these mods.

Keep 'em coming tortoise!!!

I like the eyebrows....I had looked to see if I could get them in fiberglass but this one company in Germany wanted $148.00 for them. Is that just a stick on you cut to shape?

I must admit I like it. Is that real or done with PhotoShop ?

If it is real, how does it look with the dark roof.

the carbon does not fit at all with the mirrors and the bad boy things(i don't know how they are called) fitted on the headlights don't fit at all..i think you should re-think about what you did with your car,and you should make it to look all the car the same(make the mirrors,wheels,front grill and everything to fit with each other) sorry for my english

hahaha i know wat u mean, ironically looks is not my priority when i do this, i work in the Construction industry and the stone chips etc are pretty bad. the 3M stickers are good enough to withstand all those stones and stuff.

too bad i din take the pic of my chrome grill, it was practically chipped everywhere, no thanks to the big trailers and soil truck that had their stones 'rolled' off their vehicles on the move :eek:

If i had an alternative choice, i will do it. I prefer to put on the carbon stickers as 'guards' than to keep respray my car due to the stone chips. I still prefer the clean out cut look :D

Tortoise,

Big points for being able to line everything up so well that it looks like it is photoshopped - you must have good eyes.:D

I can sympathise with construction trucks dropping crap on the road and creating stone chips everywhere.:mad:

With the amount of stick on you have used, it would have been cheaper to buy a carbon fibre Eos, and buy silver stick on for the sides:D
