We're finally getting CF replacement parts!

Right now over at sharkracing I only see a g70 CF fuel door which I personally would not invest in. However, they have CF mirror covers for the K5 and door handles for the stinger and veloster, so I assume it's only a matter of time before these come for the g70.

Pretty excited. Will definitely be ordering the mirror covers. Door handles seem a bit pricey.

I realize I'm definitely in the minority on this, but I like the notion of CF because of the physical advantages (strength and weight-savings); not for the appearance. I am not a huge fan of the look of unpainted CF.

I think it's the functionality that makes it look amazing to me. Purely as a design choice IDGI. However, knowing that it presents a functional advantage over other materials makes it attractive.

That's why I've never understood CF vinyl film or tape.

I get your point though, CF mirror covers/handles etc will not really provide any real advantages, so it is mainly for looks.

I'm not a fan of the look either, especially in the interior. It seem like cheesy boy-racer VTech stuff.
