I think a carbon "look" belly pan would be a mistake IMO. Plain black or silver would look a lot more classyerer.

DONT DO IT!!! leave carbon look where it should be and thts on the shelf.

im sorry but no carbon look looks good or any thing like the real thing, as soon as i see it to me it screams "this person doesnt know what their doing"

your polished rims with the odd carbon and some nice glossy black will look awsome!!!!!

good luck

I've a carbon look hugger (it were cheap - very cheap) and it really does look poo up close. It's mostly hidden - but a bellypan is on show and as others have said - i'm pretty sure it'd look pants.
