This technique used is a great one if this is on your Mod list.

The JBA Super Sport is a CGM car. We opted for the inlay as a result of our SEMA
build plan. We very much intended a Monochromatic Subtle look. Adding a Carbon
inlay to a Cyber Grey Metallic car worked for our build due to the color of CF and
the CGM color being so close in value. As a matter of fact, very few people even
see the inlay until the walk up next to the car.





We also did an inlay on the front bumper lip and in the scoop.



Up close it is quite nice, but you have to be committed to the look.
We also have the option to mask off and continue the SS stripes over
the roof.
Thanks Greg, love that car as you already know

I'm still debating having the hood, roof, trunk/spoiler painted but leaving the cf unpainted to create stripes. I've always wanted to do that. And like you said it's very subtle. I might do a pin stripe to outline them (in ZR-1 blue of course) just to add some character, much like your red stripes. What do you think of that idea?

This car looks awesome!
I actually saw your car last night at a gas station and thought, gee, that looks familiar! I was pretty sure I had seen it on this site, and sure enough it was this one (I recognized the license plate).

Looks even better in person!

Both cars look great with the Carbon Fiber.

I am thinking about some of this for my White SS.

Me. Never been a fan of the carbon fiber look and don't understand people's obssession with it. But to each their own... whatever makes you happy with your car.

The carbon fiber looks awesome. It just adds that big money performance look to your car. Great job.

That's a pretty good deal though still.

And the roof is super pretty.

When you say "under a grand for everything" what do you mean?
Did you get something done other than the roof?

Pretty sure he was/is referring to prepping the roof, installing the carbon fiber, epoxying the carbon fiber, clear coating, and polishing it.
