Not a fan of carbon but JP's work is amazing. No point in CF on a luxury sedan since it's extremely heavy anyway. I'm almost afraid to ask what the price tag is on that kit.

Carbon fiber is nice but if it's anything like the normal JP kit with fitment issues dealing with the doorcaps/claddings, that would definitely suck.

I think they were selling the entire car for a pretty reasonable price actually.

PS: it's still FS. 3480000 yen so about 35k for a S300 w/ 51k km. For what you get, doesn't seem bad.

IMO, the JP kit is more luxurious than sporty, in which CF doesn't really integrate very well. But if I see a more sporty kit (like Vertex, with a monster motor to back it up), then it's a different story.
