Default Too Much CF?

Is their such a thing as too much Carbon Fiber. For intence a carbon fiber hood, duckbill spoiler and lip on an EG, over doing it?

Also Would you have a carbon fiber lip on your daily driver? My car's pretty low and I'm worried about busting it and scraping it everytime I pull in some where.

Right my stock hatch wing is so heavy

I think that just the hood and duckbill will be fine, balence the front and back out (hood and wing) but just get a normal lip.

There is such thing as too much CF.

But those you listed, Wing, Lip, & Hood. I think is perfectly fine... although I am a little biased.

This car is ALL CF...

make your car lighter with the CF then paint the CF you dont like, its as easy as that. and i dont wanna hear a dumb remark from anyone saying, "carbon fiber wasnt meant to be painted". all the top race teams on the circuit do.
