too new of a car IMO to start throwing bits of CF on it just for looks

Now that would be cool if they offered it in the body colors. Imagine a red CF cover for the red GT-R. That would be sweet.

I really like it....makes for a far more expensive look than the stock plastic. Compliments the intake manifold well

i guess i'd need to get used to seeing the real car in person, it just seems so new, but i'm sure that it would grow on me quickly

I'm not totally nuts over CF stuff, but if done sparingly and tastefully, it's ok.

if there's a good CF theme going on i'm down

sometimes people overdo it (but that's common with a lot of things)

yes, I don't like the "let's lash all square inches in the car with carbon fiber because that means it's cool" type of approach.
