Whatever brings you joy, i don't have to get in the car in the morning.

It's all about the subtle touches though. I'd say instead of the CF back hatch, rock a CF spoiler, lip, and fenders, then on the inside just cover all the brushed silver parts with CF and get a CF shift ****. Bang, tasteful application of CF.



[sarcasm]Then do huge tribal flames on everything.[/sarcasm]

Hell Huge??? No way do them so big they wont fit on the side... Honestly I got my xB in Black because of how it makes Carbon Fiber look so subtle..I dont think I would do it on a white xB even I like subtle.. My flames are even sort of small...and subtle...lol

Your flames aren't even that tribal'd out and yeah, CF does look much better on black than silver/white/light colors.

Do you do custom graphics?

I think it makes a good accent for Camo, I agree with the "done tastefully" part.

I've got the door handles, gas door and trunk lid accent. A CF hood and spoiler are my finishing touches, eventually/hopefully...

I think the CF hood and a CF hatch and spoiler would almost be a two tone. I think it would look tight on Camo. Paint the top black or [dreaming]actually layed with CF [/dreaming] and it would be a cool color effect, IMO.
