CF usually looks pretty good with FM. Here's some pics though:

Thanks, looking good

Although the only aftermarket hood i'm a fan of is the kaminari one but its still nice to see some FM tc's with carbon fiber as a good reference. A lot of the pics in that thread weren't loading for me though

But CF blends well with FM, that's why I think it looks nice. But yes, contrast is nice too. Like on SW or something. But I still don't care for CF on BSP. Doesn't work at all with that...
