Carbon Fiber frontal replacement:

It isnt the prettiest car I've ever done... But the objective of the project was to replace every panel and exterior accessory, that could possibly be done, be replaced with a carbon fiber component.
Headlights, hood, fenders, fascia, lip, doors, rear valence, rear view mirrors... Everything.
One thing is for sure... That was a damn tough chop.
What you guys think?

Lately I've noctice a few people that have learned somthing new will go WAY overboard with it, and YOU SIR have set a new benchmark! ;)
Seriously though, why not start out somthing simple like a hood, prerfect it, and work towards more.. Thats to much too fast!
IMHO CF in genaral is not atractive at all but gives points to a chop if done right because of difficuty and the pros will see good wrork right off.
Just freindly advise. :)

Why do that when you can go WAY overboard, and completely break convention :D
Like I said... Not the prettiest thing I've ever done, but its just an experiment. Apperently a failed one :D
Advice taken, and put into consideration. Thanks

I beg to differ. I think the CF looks real good. The only thing is maybe the twirl is a bit too much.
And you did NOT set the record for most CF or going overboard. See below:

Good to hear from you Ace... I think that purge is going to be my signature from now on... It's pretty nice looking.

It is real nice looking. I know I have said it a lot, but you may want to shrink your pattern even more. I was just comparing the two, and I think that would help.
Cant wait for the next one!

Yea I didnt relize the patern was too big until I was half way through... So I figure I would just stay consistant with it and see how it turned out.

I think you should redo that but just do the bonet like the reare vision mirrors that would be better.
And Kusmace theres way too much carbon for me and its too dark but the vinyl is cool!

Yea dude, that would have been much easier... But thats not what I was going for in this project.

Its all in layers, so all I would have to do is a few clicks, and I can take away anything I dont like... So it wouldnt be tough.
