Spent some time just sitting looking at the car, fooling around inside, I had a moment when I knew it was my next car.
Btw, people not liking the light up badges are just haters. They look sooooo much better in person.
However, I am contemplating putting a darker transparent wrap over the faux silver CF though, it does not look as good as the stock black FRS panels. Sadly, due to a few mixups, my car appears to be a few weeks out still even though I ordered the day of the 10 series announcement.

The "silver" carbon fibre is just a piece of plastic that has been double side taped to the original fake carbon. Original fake carbon still there, just on the light panel a hole has been drilled in so they can run some wires to the circuitry on the lighter panel. I wonder if you could order an original black panel and just mount the electronics to it instead. Not sure its worth my time/money to pay for that though!
Its actually quite sad; the plastic piece over top doesn't even cover the original piece in many places that well; especially around the head unit area.
