The GS looks really nice. the lip is really really nice. so is the hood. But i would paint the lip and hood if it were me.
The unpainted carbon fibre kind of makes it look incomplete or unfinished as someone mentioned. if u want to keep the carbon fibre unpainted, why not paint your roof and trunk black like the sc. it would complement the carbon fibre.
car looks great though....nice and clean

i like everything about the way you took the car but the CF front lip. I would paint the lip or swap it with someting more subtle, like TTE. But thats just me.

Good job bro, lovin the stance and wheels and the CF/White/White color combo. Keep it up.

I never understood carbon fiber add on parts. Replacements, maybe. But if a cf lip is supposed to be lighter than a fiberglass lip, wouldn't it save more weight to not have a lip?

I'm not a fan of the white wheels. They look like they're made out of plastic. I like the stance and the rear end though. Since you like cf so much, maybe you should get a TRD grill to match.

I think the way the SC is set-up is perfect. I would make the GS look identical to the SC. That would look sick!!
