What type of vinyl/sticker did you use? It looks like a 3D sticker rather than CF vinyl/actual CF

Blacking out your sidemarkers and painting the bonnet vent like M-Benz will make it look more aggressive

thanks for talking some sense into me probably just a lip spoiler on the trunk and the roof then.

as for the vinyl. it's a carbon fiber vinyl: not the 3M Di-Noc though.
