It reminds me of my 350z hood/bonnet. I like it, most of you don't seem to like the "JDM" look so that why most might not like it. And the "most carbon fiber parts just add weight" thing isn't always true. My hood is much lighter than the OEM hood. At least it felt like it.

I meant it in the way some people are obsessed with carbon cosmetic looks, so are constantly adding carbon bits, splitter, spoiler, skirts etc etc It's adding weight for parts that weren't originally there, instead of replacing parts like for like to reduce the weight.
I get what your saying, I recently got a carbon fiber diffuser just need to find time to put it on. I'm sure at a certain high speed it will help, but I know I will rarely get it to those speeds but I admit I got it for the looks, but I'm going for that JDM racecar look!
:driving: I'm sure most might say it will add weight or it looks ugly but that's what I like so I'm doing it, its just the added bonus that its carbon fiber so at least adding weight isn't too heavy.

Don't get me wrong I'm a fan of add on bits! I think my first comment came across wrong...I was just saying how it's ironic adding bits isn't achieving what Carbon is designed for...saving weight!
In the real world none of us are trying to save 0.23 seconds of a lap time to win a race and not looking for extra downforce that really doesn't work unless you're going over 80 MPH :cry:
 
it's not just out, it been there for like 3 years at least.

i love it but not the price, there's a UK company wich offerd import but it's way to €€€€€€€€
