I agree. The unpainted CF fenders and lip makes the car look cheap and unfinished.

i like the look of the unpainted cf... what's the point of buying cf to paint it over? senseless in my books.

painting the Varis cf hood n chargespeed fenders will just make it look stock looking... wtf would i buy the cf for??

Volk Ce28n Limited.

18 x 9.5 +15

The rears were rolled. I'm rubbing in the rear as or now. Some - Camber should take care of it. Alignment should be getting done next week along with a roll center kit and a bump steer kit.

I thought the point of buying CF was for weight savings.

^ I agree.
Jezter, your car would would benefit from painting the fenders and lip. Way too busy currently. And it has such quality parts, it would totally clean the look up.

The fenders were heavier than stock ones.i only got the fenders for aesthetics.So only the bonnet n boot were lighter.
