i kinda agree it looks to much out of place. same thing goes for the c/f gas doors.

I agree with the gas door, but my handles are already black plastic and I actually don't mind it with the CF hood and tails and with CF b-pillars I think it kind brings everything together and the CF handles would do that even better.

But I also like how smooth and clean the body color handles looks.

i think having cf handles would only look good on a black car, because then it doesnt stand out. having the cf's only makes them look unpainted from a distance or basically stock.

if i had your car i'd personally do color matched to the body so the blend in more and become less noticable.

i say paint the handles to match the car and do the carbon fiber B pillar or leave them black, i think the B pillar looks better being a dark color cuz it blends in especialy if your windows are tinted

I've got a 2000 silver cav with the black mirrors and black handles. I just got the carbon fiber handles from IZN TRBl Inc to match my carbon fiber hood and I think they look really good. The only thing is that the finish on the handles isn't as nice as the hood so i'm going to sand them a bit and spray a few coats of clear over the winter.

eww do not touch the b pillars that looks horrid, do what I did silverz and just get silver vinyl that way if they ever rip or tear its cheaper to replace the vinyl instead of getting them repainted leave the B pillars alone!! also the corners that the mirror is attached to should be left black if painting the mirrors





Re: CF vs Body color door handles...

Yep I already painted the mirrors a while ago and left the corner black, and if I got the CF b pillars I would get the black CF not the silver. The only reason I am wanting these is the paint is coming off them and it is easier and cheaper to get the CF ones than having them repainted.

Did you cover your door handles in vinyl? How hard was that?

I say carbon b pillars, and body colored handles. I thought about CF handles, but that's just too much for me. B pillars would be a nice touch tho.

Silver cav's rule

CF looks good on hoods and trunks and anything else function.... B-pillars, door handels, mirrors, gas door, etc... looks absolutely horrible

paint to match

Wrong, if done on the right car the c/f b-pillar can look good. Everywhere else does look like @!#$ though, or atleast that's what I think.

I say paint it body color. To me it will seem like you put the c/f parts on just for the sake they are c/f.

Body color will make the car flow better. Sometimes carbon works and sometimes it doesn't, I vote body color!
