      Adding graphics. All opinions welcome (Oh boy)

      Oh boy, I'd better get the sh*t helmet on.

      Check it out. Hawaiian graphics on the side. Carbon Fiber on the rear pillar and license plate area

      It looks nice.
      I'm not a big fan of graphics either, but they're understated, so it looks good.

      Also not a fan of the side graphics but that back carbon fiber near the license plate is really nice, where did you get the supplies?

      Interesting. I will probably just go with the plain gradation on the side (like my avatar).

      The rear pillar is a CF adhesive overlay. yeah I know. But! this is the best looking fake CF I've seen. Much more depth than most of the **** out there. Still it is from China. Ebay ad said it was "real carbon fiber" had the ad shown any possibility it was from China I would have been more cautious. price was an obvious clue - duh.

      I have an extra sheet precut for the license plate well. $40.

      p.s. I'll try to take a good pic of the CF pillar.

      I think it turned out quite nice. It is not jet black, but a dark silver look. I'll keep it.

      p.s. here is where I got it http://www.decalfx.com/carbon_2_sheets.html
      Notice that it is called "carbon 2" faux carbon fiber. But, it is the best fake.
