Matching M Perf parts

So just looking for opinions...I have the M Perf front lip and rear diffuser on my BSM M Sport. I left em the natural matte black which matches the matte black kidney grilles. Would CF side splitters look odd?

to me it would, I think that you'd want to have a nice flow from front to back. You might as well get the side splitters in matte finish. But thats just me

This is the way I'm leaning. In fact I have a pair of poly ones arriving next week. But I came across a good deal on CF which is tempting.

For me I only consider original BMW parts so I kept the upper portion CF like rear spoiler, wing mirror covers and had the pillars wrapped to dry CF stickers.
Lower portion with M performance body kit with sections painted to AW body color.

If you go CF on the sides, I think you need to change the front splitter and rear diffuser to CF to match. All those will be aftermarket and unnecessary cost.

Thanks for the input guys. Yeah I thought it wouldn't look right to have CF in the "middle" and matte poly on either end. I'll stick with what I have ordered.
