Got bored...another simple mod haha
Real carbon fiber emblem inserts! Minor touch but has a big impact in my opinion. I was skeptical at first how it would look but took a chance and glad I did! Pics below (excuse the dirt, nonstop rain lately)...

Looks good, where did you get it from? Is it real carbon fiber or just like a sticker? I've had a number of carbon fiber mods/emblems purchased off of ebay and I've found that they don't hold up well depending on the protection over it. Alot of the thin plastic that is put over carbon fiber with the emblems quickly gets baked in the sun and looks bad after a while. If its something similiar you may want to add some sort of UV protection to it or try to seal it. I've gone thru countless ones for my bmw purchased off ebay.

Thanks! Agreed...I saw it on a black IS not too long ago and it was kind of pointless lol. Unless you were close up on the car, you couldn't even tell.
