well...it wouldnt look good on a stock car, but my car is dark w/cf hood, and i was thinking about replacing that part on the outside of the side mirrors cf.
i dont think it would look bad at all.

dude it will look awsome, especially on your car with your CF Hood, and those gunmetal rims. you have one of the nicest max's on here

Screw cf mirrors. Get a set of cefiro power folding mirrors. That would be pimp.

CF is definitely a raw accent. Mirrors are a bit extreme but still a good detail. CF trunklid would be raw.

I do love those wheels. The machined lip is just perfect for setting them off. I would love to have some of those wheels on my max.
I just don't think the cf goes that well on anything other than black (caesar is the exception with white...it actually looks good.). I don't think it would go that good with the sage mist green. I cannot really see your hood though.

I think it would be cool if you got some of those side mirrors that look like the mercedes ones and then tinted the little lens darker. That would look awesome on your car. I know that people have them. There was a guy selling some in the For sale forum and he might even be able to make you some that are tinted.

CF mirrors

I think it would look awesome. I do love the contrast of CF parts on non-black maximas, but I do have a black max so it stinks. I am debating on saving up for a hood cause it would still look clean.

I say find out if they make them, cause they would be unique and look real nice.

yeah, hopefully they make them, but hey, i think a blk max with cf hood looks the cleanest, what are you talking about?
they do look good on white and other colors, but i think they look best on blk.
i wish mine was blk.
