Those additions look sick, man. The STB dresses up the engine bay nicely, did you notice any difference in handling? More solid in the corners with the top down, at all?
Also, did you just cut the raw carbon fiber with some tin-snips, though? I have a sheet I bought online for around $10 and later learned that the dust you create from cutting carbon fiber is super-toxic, stuff is similar to asbestos, apparently. Be careful with that stuff.

Yeah, that must be the stuff I have. It's stiff as a board. I was originally going to cut it up and make a custom license plate frame out of the stuff, but I don't think I want to now that I've read about the dangers. This stuff would need epoxy as well. Here's a pic I took of it, maybe 6 years ago.
Either way, you gotta love CF. For those that don't get what the big deal is about it, they just haven't seen the real stuff in person. I photographed this off a hood of an RX-7 at the racetrack one day, mmm carbon fiber!

What are you running for an air filter, a K&N drop-in or something? Any plans on for cold air induction into it, or have you already done that?
