M8 Comp Gran Coupe Carbon Fiber Recommendations

Joe4AU · 07-02-2023, 10:53 PM

Looking for recommendations for CF for my 2020 Competition Gran Coupe. My biggest question is if I mix and match (to help keep the costs within reason) from the various vendors I’ve found on here are the various parts going to match or look like a patchwork quilt? I’m definitely going with an Akropovik rear diffuser. What if I buy OEM mirror covers and an RW Carbon trunk spoiler?

This is one of my build. It has AutoTecknic Kidney Grill, Bumper Trims, Side mirror cover, Akrapovic diffuser, Sterckenn front lip, M Performance trunk lip spoiler.
All comes out nice.

I mixed and matched on one of my motorcycles once...a much smaller footprint than an automobile meaning bigger chance of installed parts being close to each other...unless different manufacturers were exactly next to each other, you couldn’t tell the slight differences in weave patterns once you got 5 feet away, and closer than that, you’d have to be looking for it to have a chance of noticing it.

I wouldn’t worry about it...JMO
