I think I'm just tired of the race car look, I get the question like once a day if my car is TT'd or if it has an RB in it.

Not really a great DD lol can't get into anywhere.

It's not that they are talking about it, I just feel it gives it the wrong look. It's a luxury car, the carbon makes it look like some kind of track beast!

should just be more motivation for "go-fast" mods. reverse lights would look better too IMO. maybe try pick up some round ones and dropping them in, a lot to choose from; IS300, GT-R, Corvette whatever...

I like the carbon fiber hood, I wouldn't put it on my car, but I like it on your setup.

The trunk on the other hand I thought looked really awkward, I would go back to OEM there.
