Nice looking Car! It was a tough call between Carbon Black and Titanium Silver but I decided to go with CB after having a couple silver cars in a row. TS looks super sharp!

Nice!! Never seen the splitters wrapped like that. Did you do it yourself?

I'm liking those side decals more and more. Hmmmm

no chrome on door handles - Shadowline option in South Africa, with Gloss Black on window trims...only Chrome is the side markers(which i intend to wrap in gloss balck as well)

Looking smart. I like the side skirt decals. I also have some on order . Regarding front splitter not a fan of the carbon wrap, I guess its the finish. You best just order some actual carbon splitter covers (~300$) and it look awesome!

+ 1. But I have to say I've been dying to see these splitters treated in some way and this is the first.
