Everytime I hear the words carbon fiber I think of Jason Ellis. Anyone know what I am talking about?

i bought a six piece set that was an original bmw part. these were fake computer replications. this new set is the real dealio...3-d at its best and they have a real nice gloss. I even put the carbon meter 2000 to the new ones and they come up as 100% real carbon fiber...LOL

Carbon meter 2000! Heck I'm sold! Wasn't Jason Ellis the inventor of that device?

Jason Ellis is an Austrailian skateboarder who has a show on Sirius radio's Faction channel. For some reason he absolutely loves carbon fiber and is always talking about how awesome it is.

I am a big fan of carbon fiber as well. iwas able to shave off about 130lbs off my civic with carbon fiber hood, hatch, and roof. its so light and durable

Carbon fiber is a very tricky mod, IMO. It can either look really good or really bad. I think it will look good with what you have going on with your X.
