carbon fiber contrast on a black G

Can you all give me your opinions on having a carbon fiber contrast on my black G. I am thinking about doing carbon fiber rims, with a carbon fiber hood, and a carbon fiber trunk. if you can give me your opinions on what you think about it. and if you dont like it, tell me what color contrast i should because i dont want chrome contrast or red. i was thinking about going all black, but heard it is played out.

Personally, I am not a fan on CF on black cars. I think black looks good on its own and only needs subtle things like lip kits and or little accents with a different color such as red calipers etc. to set it off.

On a black car you could definitely pull it of but u d wanna paint some of it so the CF simply accentuates the black.

Sounds good, just be careful with cf (wrapped) wheels if you plan to daily drive because they chip easily and are hard to maintain. But good luck things sound nice

Rims EH, I have two blacl G's both have CF on them. My Coupe had a spoiler and the sedan has a diffuser. I like them.

I'm not a fan of 99% of CF wheels. Other than that a OB G can most definitely look good with CF. take a look at my review/picture threads for some pics, I've got the most CF on any OB G I've seen, if someone else has other pics, by all means post them as well to help this guy out!

Yeah, like others said, you'd be better off with gunmetal wheels, ( close to cf color) looks great with black imo... and then a few cf touches, lip, diffuser and roof wing. Also maybe some cf in your headlight assys.... then do some interior trim to tie it all together!
