Carbon Black
Is it just me or is it hard to find good exterior mods for carbon black cars. Like with Alpine White or TiAg you get a good color combo with carbon fiber parts... but with carbon black its tough. Anyone have success with good exterior mods on a Carbon Black Mtrey?

most of us carbon blk owners opt for cf to mod...looks amazing on our color and matches great! As Chris said smoked looks even better!!!

I know other CB owners that opt for red trim here and there...maybe time attack wheels... or red stripes on the lip etc...

i wouldn't say exterior body mods are whats hard to figure out.. i think trying to find rims and INTERIOR mods that will match the varying exterior color...right now im trying to figure out what to do with my interior...im good with the hyper silver with smoke and CF exterior.

I just put the csl front bumper on my car and it looks good. I thought that with the color being dark would make the cf splitters look off but they don't. I also painted my stock wheels a dark gray and it looks good better then the polish chrome.

I just added a V-CSL bumper with the 1pc lip.. CF looks really good with CB IMHO.
