I'd paint it all IP except for the vents in the hood. There so much black it's not accents anymore but two toned which doesn't rock my world. Not aweful though and you probably won't see copies... always a bright side hum.

Yeah kind of looks like one of the cars you see that you know got in an accident and they went to the junk yard to find a matching door, hood, or fender only its a different color. Not a fan, but to each his own. I never understood CF i mean, how much weight do you really lose by changing your hood or trunk? does it really make a difference, we are driving Infinitis not qualify for the Pepsi 400 here . I just never understood it, especially the kids I see with all the CF parts, plus hanging body kits and a trunk full of speakers. I suppose the CF is to help make up for the extra weight of the speakers.

+1 on painting the hood except the vents maybe part of the trunk too. Also never been a fan of white wheels. Has potential though.

Not to be a A-Hole, But couldn't you think of a better license plate? Gucci-G is something a BMW douche bag would use for their car, Which would probably make other people think that 37 owners are douche bags & that are too full of themselves.

I like the idea however you have too many color combinations going on. Grille is black but emblem is still blinging, wheels are white don't look like they match the body, hood is CF, roof is black.. there's so much going on.

I say get your wheels coated IP, Emblem IP and hood IP just leave the vents out but's that's just my opinion.

Props for the uniqueness it isn't too bad

I like the concept but there is no flow which as a result takes away for the classiness of the car IMHO. My suggestions are that you:

-Get rid of the CF trunk
-Paint the hood IP (mayb keep the vents CF)
-Roof is fine as is
-Definitely get your wheels color matched and place the center cap back on

If you re happy with your current result, then don't mind me.

By the way, what springs did you go with?
