thought on some carbon fiber mods

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Merce...mZ190262490175

just wanted to know what you think about them. If i got them they would go onto a white c300 sport and i am also going to get the 20 inch modular concept wheels. i also plan on getting the mirror covers in carbon fiber. what do you think?

i also want to get a lip spoiler in carbon fiber.
this is the link to the spoiler i found

Waiting for a full piece to be made and not the segmented. If nothing comes out, I know of some shops that'll do custom CF and make it a one piece. It'll be more expensive though, but I didn't want the separation. Or I just might spring for the new mirrors once I see them. Or a combination....the new mirrors with the white part in CF.

I agree. It's a fine line between CF accent and CF eyesore. I'm going with the white/CF motif, but trying to keep the balance with just enough CF (which is hard since I'm a CF ***** ) .

Yea same here lol I'm really contemplating the CF diffuser as I already have the spoiler. Dunno about the roof spoiler though, our car looks sick without it IMO.

It doesn't look bad at all, it's growing on me (the CF roof spoiler). Though if I had a different color the black I would probably get a matching colored roof spoiler instead of CF. Haha yea I want that damn CF diffuser so bad, I figure I might as well sell my C63 diffuser to get some $ towards the CF one.

Yeah thats what i luv about that look though some may call it "rice" i think the roof spoiler is subtle enough where its a nice mod. I will more than likely get it as a Xmas present for myself hehehe i treat myself reaaaal good no ??

Okay guys i need your opinion on these spoilers I know i want the roof spoiler to be cf but do you think if i get a cf trunk spoiler also would it be " overkill " of cf on my ride ?? I was thinking perhaps getting the trunk spoiler like oem and just the roof as cf just to avoid the " its a mb and not a honda " remarks ehhehee ?? TIA

I don't think that a CF rear spoiler would be overkill or even ricey but I do think that a oem painted boot spoiler flows better with the lines of the car; stands out less while still giving an agressive look.
