I am sure both will look good. The gray may stand out more since you have black interior.

it makes me wonder... wouldnt that adhesive become undone with our heat during the summer time? i remember our cars do get really hot during the summer. i remember thats the best time to remove the city sicker because the heat loosened the adhesive. so how much stronger would that 3m spray be?

I've got a few square feet of CF fabric I have laying around, can sell it if anyone wants. I just never got the time to do interior mods on it.

I saw Tom's SC300 5 speed pictured with the CF wrap in person.
Very good work generally!

Tom: We have to meet up again and have some Tyskie, yes?
