OEM carbonFiber Hood

OEM CarbonFiber Trunk

and he Tinted the Cleacoat so its not Black Carbon Anymore, Insteand its a Cranberry CarbonFiber and if yours into the CF it loosk nice, but the fact the rocks go below the fenders imo it looks wacked on LR he needs to paint that piece of the rocker blk ro something so its no in your face

Heres a few pics of Greg's G from Clean Image at the Dub Show





Not a fan of the red carbon fiber at all but he has the TS front from Carbon Creations as well the fenders and trunk lid.

trunk, front bumper, fenders, doors.........would this be to much CF? Anyone with photoshop skills want to give it a go?

thanks!!!
I just got a CF G type bumper from Extreme Dimension/Carbon Creations and it's a piece of crap. Not only the side markers won't fit but there's dips in areas where it should be flat. I have the GReddy fiberglass version on my car now and it fits better then this bumper. They will also give you a run around trying to return it even to exchange I have to send pics for them to approve. Here's a pic of the side marker and the bumper

Carbon Creations makes the TS-1. I just bought one last week, installed it last night.

I'll take some pics and post them up and maybe ya'll can give me some feedback. It should have been easy enough to install because there's marks where the holes should be drilled but I still think the overall fittment should have been much MUCH better... I'm gonna take it somewhere this week to see if anything can be done about it.. Most of my friends say it looks awesome and I'm just being too picky but they drive fiberglassed hondas

-Edit-

I just left the body shop where I got all my work done on a previous car, and they told me I actually did a good job. He says the bumper is a factory defect and that if I have him try to re install it I'll just be wasting my money.

Definitely taking pics and posting them here as well as emailing them to the place where I purchased this and carbon creations in hope that they exchange it.

It could be worst though, at least I got a good deal on it. Retail is 950 + shipping and the cheapest I've seen it is 805 + shipping. I paid about 700 shipped.
