Okay, here's some pics of a partially complete Fiber Images (D3) kit on my silver EP

I like the look of the carbon fiber on a silver car. I think it matches up well together IMO. It will look very nice painted also. You can't go wrong either way. Also I think your car would look better if you put the red and amber side markers back on . Those clear markers look cheap IMO. :)

I think unpainted is fine, as long as more than one element is that way (like a hood+sides).

Either way, it looks fantastic. good choice!

roll with it unpainted for a while and see if you like it. if you don't you could always paint it. but don't paint it first because you will always wonder what it could have felt like to roll with a full carbon fiber kit. kinda like that movie serendipity, but different.

it'll only take me about an hour to decide once I have the kit fully on.

I went by the shop and it will not cost more than 800 to paint the kit.

For the person that was wondering, it's about 125 for each side skirt.

D3 is a company that designs kits. They don't sell them. So fiber images took the design that D3 made, makes them and sells them :D Just ask the D3 guy on this site, that's what he told me.

Yeah, I know I'm going nuts...I need to stop. I can't see being able to do anything else. I'm going to start saving for a Type R motor after the kit is on...I sware! :D

and here's some proof if no one believe me

Also, if you look closely at the side skirt in the close up shot, you may be able to make out the word fiber images that is engraved in the side skirt.

At first I was going to say leave it unpainted but seeing the photoshop, i'd say paint it. The rims go really well with the car.

The wing....I bought that on ebay, way back, 9 months ago I guess. It was from makatomotorsports on ebay. I had to modify it to fit of course
