true, i think ill just purchase a hood bra for my car to cover up the rock chips. what about my trunk? you think it'll look weird if i just carbon fiber the trunk with the 4D CF Vinyl wrap which is supposedly similar to the look of an actual CF.

^well to me the HD trunk is an undeniably beautiful upgrade. Looks like this:



you can check the marketplace for one. They are available in bot CF and in FG. otherwise I personally believe in just touching up, or if its bad enough respraying the OEM part. I say the OEM is better than a cheap "upgrade." again just my .02

Haha nah man, the only reason why I was considering doing cf vinyl wrap was to hide some dent dimples and rock chips but with a lot of thinking I realized it would look a lot shittier if I went with the cf wrap route. As of the wheels I'm still deciding. Right now at my age I'm not really planning on going extremely expensive on wheels just because I don't have the funds to spend that type of money but later on in my life I'll definitely purchase some authentic wheels.

If money is an issue look at Enkei and O.Z. racing They have some really nice, quality wheels at good prices.

i think it'll take time with what wheels i really want to go with. im in no rush haha. but as for the trunk i agree with you saywat but honestly the more i look at it the more im starting to like it, idk i think its just because its different haha.

I'm guessing you also have an auto so all you do is take off the center console, take out the screws that hold on the little aluminum plate thing around the shifter. cut the bottom of the Crown bag and put it around the plate. screw the plate back down and reinstall the console. pull the drawstrings tight around the shifter and tie em so they don't come loose.
