I wouldn't do it unless they are going to be painted. That is going to look off once you get them on. "Do, or do not. There is no 'try'." - Yoda

You could pull this off since your ride is black - get a Carbon Fiber hood if you don't have one already, Carbon Fiber hatch, and any other Carbon Fiber exterior accessoties as you can imo...

They are really light bro... I realize that. Both the stock and the carbon fiber fenders are "really light." There just isn't enough metal in a fender to justify having to replace it with a carbon fiber copy, unless of course you are obsessed with the stuff as I know many of you are. In other words, using carbon fiber fenders is not an effective mode of weight reduction, it's just for show.
