Opinion on cosmetic parts

In your opinion what would look best if the car is MGM and already has gloss black grilles, other components such as lip, spoiler, mirror replacements in gloss black or carbon fiber? Thanks!

Can't go wrong with carbon fiber on anything pretty much....RW Carbon makes pretty much everything cosmetic wise in CF and the fits pretty good from what I hear. I'm going to get my mirrors from them soon

I recommend Rw carbon varis style carbon fiber lip. Fitment is 99% and bolts up easy with some self tapping screws. Holes are predrilled so installation is a breeze

CF looks awesome on MG and darker colors. Not a fan of it on lighter colors.

Gloss black. CF is often overdone and doesn't work well with the rest of the trim.
