Awesome. Thanks. Still on the fence about it, but now I know how it looks on my color.

Honestly it’s one of those things you’ll really be the only one to notice. I showed my wife and she Didn’t see it haha. So if you aren’t a fan of the super long reflectors on the side go for it but if you’re cool with it then keep it as is.

Followed GenesisG70’s example and put this carbon fiber dash overlay on.

I really like the look of filling in the body color instead of the reflector, don’t get me wrong. I think the reflector breaks up the body lines and looks hideous, but I would want it perfectly smooth, the filler strip just doesn’t do it for me. I guess if I wanted to spend the money I would have a body shop do it so it was completely seamless.
Can’t justify that either.
 
Got anymore photos? I'm curious to see how it looks around the edges of the dash and if you can easily tell it's an overlay.
It's decent and I like it, but you can tell it's an overlay if you look closely. You can see the original dash by the screen. The edge by the passenger side vent looks worse in this picture because of shadows, but yes, you can tell it's an overlay.

Thanks for being so honest, those little details would annoy me but does look good though.

A lot of people buy the wrap for them, with the stinger logo popping out. I think that looks pretty sick. I just don't know how long that would last, so i went this route.

August 2018 I purchased a sheet of black vinyl from craft section of a hardware store and cut to size. There have been no issues with lifting or discolouration so a wrap, if properly applied, should be just as good if not better. Cost was <$5.

I was on the fence about the side markers, too, so I decided to try out KDM’s carbon fiber decals as a trial run. I’ve like them so far and they’ve held up better than expected for over 6 months.
