hmmm....interesting. at first i liked it, then i hated it, now im back and forth. its def different and I respect you for doing something different, i am just unsure.
there is something about the contrast of colors. normally i like the black and white contrast, or other colors and CF. but for this color i cant decide. i think the black contrast (side vents, esp the black outlining of the tails, VG etc) looks out of place on a matte silver color.
if you color matched some of the black accents I think it would flow much better. either way mad props for doing something different and nice car!

Thanks for the comments, to tell you the truth, all EVO Xs when you buy them from the dealer, come in black details I mean the taillights here come from the dealer with RA Taillights, the vents are in black from the dealer that includes the front bumper intercooler vents and fog lights, you don't have another choice other than black or going with the same color body color which will hide the details of the car.
But again I respect your idea and it was set on my mind but if you think about it, then you don't have a choice.

real carbon fibre, which is usually used in exterior parts only come in Gloss CF, I have tried a lot looking for dry CF to match the matte color but only Dry CF Wrapping is what is available.
I want wheels but shipping to Bahrain is expensive.
