Yeah, not sure about the lights. I like and want the LEDs. I like the look when they are turned off, but I think the "pattern" looks a bit cheap :-(
Considering tinting them, but making them "black" is a sure way to be stopped by the cops here... Especially since I will have "removable tint" on the front side windows (which is also illegal).

They finished the mirrors yesterday so now it´s all done. The car is dusty however and weather is bad, so I will postpone taking a bunch of pictures until I´ve cleaned and waxed it and hopefully see some sun 
Yeah, not sure about the tails. I hate the "red" of standard tails and I like the LEDs, but I do agree they look a bit cheap when turned on. Currently both front lights and tails are smoke tinted, I might decide to battle the police and make them darker, we´ll see...
I love the CF, and while people around here are not sure about the tails they all love the CF
I imagine your dislike might come from seeing a lot of cheaper cars with stuff like this in the US? Here altering the original look of your car is much more uncommon. Even replacing the wheels is something most ppl don´t do... The only other cars I´ve seen with CF-wrap around here are Lambos, Ferraris and Porsches so to me it has an exclusive look.
Upcoming "urgent" mods are:
* "Black Pearl" or similar badges.
* Replacing the "yellow" DRLs (not sure how though, don´t want to sacrifice high beams).
* Tint of front side windows.
* Interior and license plate LEDs.
* CF-tips (not sure how to find any though....).
The "ultimate" dream would be a Tom´s or similar aero-kit, but for now spending $4000+ for getting it here is too much
Also have to switch to winter wheels in a couple of weeks. Feels a bit sad since the car came with pretty "basic" 18" rims for the winter tires. New winter wheels will be an investment for next season however...
