Thanks for the feedback everyone...good and bad...
In response to the tails they were done that way by the previous owner...so I inherited them. They look to be tinted with some sort of film. They're gonna stay that way though Im not going to worry about it. But thanks for the tips. I do like the idea of the Joe Z CF tips to compliment the wheels, however I don't think I'll be doing much more CF on the car. IMO just because the centers of my wheels are CF I don't feel like that's a reason to go nuts on the CF. Hell If the centers were Chrome or brushed does that mean I need to chrome or brush out the rest of the car?
Can't wait to see how it looks lowered!

Nice bro just need a ventross cf lip to complete the look! Too bad I didn't get the chance to lower my F, when you get the springs that should complete the looks! Congrats!

great looking set up, personally not a fan of tinted tail lights though.

I thought these wheels were "real" Carbon Fiber?

It is real carbon fiber wrapped over the aluminum. The centers are not actually pure carbon fiber.

The ride height is perfect.

Do NOT lower the car.
