Wrap Colour Choice.... Carbon Fiber?

[ds08tf]

So I'm having a dilemma. I'm going to be wrapping my trunk (hatch), roof, and part of my hood. And I was originally going to black it out and go completely blue and black. But now I'm starting to think that I should do it white to mix it up... or maybe a sky blue to compliment the winning blue colour. You can get carbon fiber now in all sorts of colours from graphite to black to white to sky blue.

I'm just looking for opinions and suggestions. Here's kind of a pic of what it would look like from behind although this is a newer hatch. Mine is an 04'



Also currently my wheels are black with blue lugnuts. I'm debating getting custom wheel cap center covers that will have a white/black/graphite?/black evil M logo on them.

I'm all ears!

Sound like interesting plans. I would personally just go for black, though you might make white work too. I'm thinking mixing blues on the same car might not work, but props to you if you pull it off. Will be interesting to see results.

Not sure if mixing the blues would work.
The white would be drastic, but different. I would choose black over the white.
As for the CF... I find that CF is only good if it's small accents or real CF. If it were just a CF wrap hood, you may get away with it, but it won't look as good as a real CF hood.

Good thing about vinyl, you can try it out and if doesn't work...... just take it off.

** the rims in the pic look seeeeeeeeeeeck!!!!! KoukiDC5 has the same color scheme rims on his RSX.

agreed, dont mix blues. The pic is really not a good idea to compare because not only is it the wrong gen but it is ALSO the wrong blue altogether

I agree with pogi

I know it was the only one I could find with a black wrapped trunk though. I think I'm going to do front hood accents black, hood black, and trunk black. ... Now gloss or matte... hmm

If you have a sunroof, I would suggest gloss for the roof wrap. In my opinion, the finish and integration just blends better due to the sunroof material.

I just want someone with a 2nd gen to get that wrap. That looks awesome.
