No offense, but when I looked at the first picture I thought your trunk needed to be painted - just doesn't look right to me

I do like the hood though, but the license plate being off to the side throws off the symmetry for me.

I guess I'm not a big fan of CF, sorry - I didn't realize that till just now.

I do really like the wheels, what kind are they?

But I'm sure some people won't care for everything I did to my G either

I'm just not a CF guy at all. It looks unfinished and mismatched. The color of that car is very nice, but I'd like it better if it was all that color.

Another problem I have is that I associate CF with boy racers since I first started seeing it on tiny little hondas with ginormous spoilers and mufflers. So to me, on an Infiniti, CF just cheapens an otherwise classy and sexy car.

I like the trunk, think a oem type CF hood would be better. And would consider painting (black) the roof and down the pillars in front and back to tie everything together.

Blue and CF is a hard combo to pull off, so it's a challenge. I can't say much about having CF though since one car has a CF hood, but it'll be painted sometime.

The wheels look great. Need to center your tag. Needs a grill. Hood looks okay, but not my thing. Don't like the trunk and mirrors.
