IMO, putting a CF Hood on a Lexus is tacky.

Hmm, I wouldn't have went for the CF hood 1st. I'm ordering my GFX kit this week and get some deep dish rims. A nice kit and rims would complete the CF hood.

Not feeling the hood, sorry. As long as you like though, that's cool.

Dont look bad, but i dont think i would have started with the cf hood for the 1st mod & if so I would have bought the factory Diamond grey finished wheels until you got aftermarkets!!! but alot of potential my dude!!!
