well thats not true, a stock front lip and stock rear spoiler is cosmetic so are side strakes....

i just wanted to know what peoples opinion of carbon fiber on a yellow body was tacky or tastefull...

not in the least, they both serve an aerodynamic function. And quite decently at that.

If you are worried about whether the CF will blend well with your entire car, just do what I did, and make the trunk not match either.

Then its so confusing, your brain will just give up.

The spoiler appearance is better than nothing IMO. But I'd go with the color matched OEM version.

If you had a carbon hood to match, then I'd say go for it.

Its your car...have fun!
