I'd be careful about that combo, Ty. Personally, I think it's gonna look like the car is waiting for paint.

How much actual weight will you be saving by changing all the metal panels to CF?

That Imola Orange is a cool looking color. Then again, layered colors can make the car look different colors depending on the light and angle it is viewed from. One of my favorite colors is called Midnight Blue, it looks dark blue in full daylight, but can look black at other times. That is cool.
