I think the front hood line would kill it. It just doesn't lend itself to this type of contrast in my opinion. From more than a short distance it will look like you had to replace your hood, and haven't had it painted yet. Just too blunt. If the line more closely followed the nose (if the logo area was in the hood) it would be much better. I'll include that in general I've never liked the CF parts look anyway outside of trim areas. Even if I had a CF hood/trunk/roof/etc I'd want it to be body color or something different than just "Hey look, CF cause I can!"

I dig the Varis lip, but probably not in CF. ING's bumper...eh. Not bad, looks a little "molded" to me but it's definitely better than the OEM BRZ bumper.

most of the kits im seeing are tacky-looking lips which i've never been a fan of on cars as it just ruins the curvatures, id like to see some more 'whole' bumpers being designed.
And for sideskirts, i reckon a small add-on just underneath the body is perfect. |

TRD BECAUSE TRD RACING not because it has TRD brakes.

 That black FR-S really changed my mind on that kit. I used to hate it, but it looks amazing.
