Wink GD3 Carbon Fiber wind/rain visors
OK, I finally got what I've been wanting for a while now, c/f visors
I was hesitant to pick-up these because they are opaque and I was wondering if that would hinder my vision from inside the cab. But much to my amazement it hardly affected my vision at all and furthermore it doubles a good sun visor as well
These are another example of Rogue's masterworks....

I removed my red reflective "H" emblem from my Rogue rear garnish and added on a Rogue kevlar one instead.. I'm like'n it...

You need to change the "Sport Edition" badge for one that says "Carbon Edition" LOL She is lookin better and better man. So whats next? Carbon Glass? Carbon Tires? I think the carbon fenders would really fit your theme best, but they ain't cheap....

Thanx GP, HaHa on that badge change The fenders are a nice add-on, however, I don't trust my drivin' enuff, guarantee I will scrape against something and there goes my $$$$$
The rear hatch door is most likely where I'm going next

i'm guessing that you're going to search for a CF bodykit right after this? and maybe CF Boot door after that?

I have a couple questions.
How much was your grill, honda emblems, and the rear garnish. I would like to add the smooth rear garnish so I don't have a badge back there.

Looks very cool- truly unique Fit. Nicely done! I have done only a bit of interior carbon fiber trim on my dash & door grips.
I especially like the red carbon fiber rear hatch grip--did you custom cut it or order it ready-made somewhere?
