I'm not feeling the headlights covers, wind deflector things, or the decals, but the carbon looks perfect! Nice work!
headlight covers - welcome to the 90's
decals under mirror ( only looks bad cause the exterior is stock pretty much)
sticker by the exhaust - just plain looks bad
carbon fiber airbag overlay - looks wavy
dont like the pedal covers
antenna is a skyscraper
aftermarket sunroof? should have paid the extra to get a power sunroof. esp on a new car
fusebox carbon fiber overlay doesnt cover the whole panel which looks a little tacky
ventvisor window deflector things never have looked good imho
what i do like however is the HVAC knobs - goes well with the carbon fiber HVAC panel
just my opinion of the car, dont get mad
everyone is entitled to their own opinion. some of us have the money to do the rims, body kit and ect. some don't right now. ventvisors are there for a reason... sucks to smoke in the rain. speaking of the antenna... does anyone know where i can get a power one cheap? cheapest I've found is 40.

if you're lookin for wheels, i have some for sale... check the classifieds name is jason sommer or click on my sig and you'll find them on my cardomain page too...
I'm not a big fan of "stick-on" mods or aftermarket sunroofs like that one, sooooooooo...the two things I do actually like are your tails and trunk.
I'm not trying to be a prick or anything but if ya stopped smoking you would have more money for mods...if your going to mod mod right....just my honest opinion...the first thing that I got for my car was well tint and then exahust and an air intake, exhaust piping and then i got dropped on kyb agx struts and an eibach prokit and i work a minimum wage job...it just takes saving to do things right.
where are you guys seeing pics of the sunroof and pedals?

Fuggit man the carbon fiber trim is nice, but the stickers shouldnt be there if those products arent on the car in my opinion. It's your thing though. nice pics

he has an AEM intake
B&M short throw shifter
DC sports Strut tower bar
Magnaflow muffler
so id say he DOES have the products on his car
That is true matt. i do have those mods and all of the "dress up" stuff were the first mods that i did (with the exception of the sticker) my main focus is the performance part of the car. Yes i would like rims but they are not necessary at this point; the stock rims and tires will handle the speed and power of the car. also i am very picky about the performance and appearance of my car so there fore it is hard for me to find stuff because 1. i am always changing my mind. 2. look for parts for an eco. there aren't that many (i mostly go with the older companies due to their experience and reliability). as for the money aspect... i have a 1 month old boy now and cannot get these great things for the car. and i am slowly coming to terms with that. so money is very scarce for me although i did just get promoted so i should be seeing more money from the army.
sorry about rambling.

contrary to what others have been saying, i think you're off to a pretty good start. everyone has to start somewhere. black and cf is definitely a hot combo. i would just get rid of the stickers. other than that, i like it
looks nice. carbon can always set off the look inside the car.. It would look mint if the dash/counsol were black!!

where did you get the c/f trim?
you have to stand for something, or you're bound to fall for anything
Gotta lose those stickers, you've got a sleeper look going on - keep it that way. Why advertise for those companies, anyways?
