cf on sports car, when done right very cool. not only on black cars. i think the m6 and m3 with cf roof they look pretty sick

but the gs is far from a sports car though, so it looks kind of funny

Henry what strikes me as a difference between the 2GS and 3GS was the amount of JDM and Tuner people. To me the 2GS seems to attract people willing to take more risks and it seems to really attact a sportier audience in Japan (tt I-6 will do that ) . The 3GS seems to continue to attract a more mature tuner even as prices have come down.

I thought I was set on what I was gonna do but now I'm flip flopping again

well if you can do CF exterior but blend in with paint maybe that will do (then you gotta do wheels and such to reflect sportiness as well).

gotta be very careful on how to execute
