Carbon Fiber Package - 8 series

Hi all,

Wanted to hear everyone’s thoughts on the carbon fiber package for the r7 series... are most of you inclined to add this option? Where are the carbon fiber accents on the car? Roof, rear lip spoiler, rear bumper/diffuser, mirror caps?

I really like the idea of a carbon roof and the diffuser in carbon is a different design to the standard one. However I'm not really a fan of the carbon mirror caps and spoiler as they don't do anything different to the normal items.

I agree. Putting carbon everywhere makes it ugly and unnecessary. Functional carbon on the roof and diffuser would be the only place I would like to see. On my i8, I like the exposed carbon from the structure which is naturals, beautiful and functional.
