Icon2 dilemma

Earlier this week some smart *** decided to put the trashcans in the middle of the driveway. Me being in a hurry didn’t see it and hit it hard. Now my gsr wing is broken off. However this weekend my brother won a very large amount of carbon fiber wrap. So now im not so sure whether or not I should cf the trunk or just the wing and find another. Or get a real cf type r wing . or with the left over wrap get the hood trunk and type r lip. What do you guys think. Iwanted to do something a little different but I know that two tone tegs look ugly. Any suggestions or person opinions on the appearance of the tegg?

Get a new wing and a new trunk if you have to.

First of all, there's no such thing as a "real carbon fiber type R wing." If its carbon fiber its a knockoff. Integras with the fake carbon wings and lips look like *** IMO. Just repaint the hatch and go wingless with a mild lip. Clean and simple.

thanks for clarifying that up. now if i was to go wingless and visor which i plan on doing and decide to put the carbon fiber wrap does the wrap have any affect on the paint if i was to ever get tired of it... and how long does it last if i were to get it done professionally

I doubt you could get a "carbon look" vinyl wrap off without harming the paint. If you go wingless there is going to be holes in the hatch that need to be welded shut. Why don't you just get a new gsr wing?

The 3M DiNOC CF wrap looks good, you can clear over it, AND it it non harmful to your existing paint.
