overboard. definately not my style and if your going to wrap anything make it big pieces like the hood or your roof or trunk. the point of carbon fiber was to decrease body parts in weight, i dont know why a 5 oz plastic sharkfin needs to be lighter.

if it suits you, awesome. just hate the impracticality of wrapping the lightest parts on the forte.

Is the carbon fibre shark fin a dummy or a working one?

Not sure if I'm reading those graphs right. Did the chip give you 27.5 HP more?
