I voted no

I wouldn't call it a fad because its been around for so long...I had a CF hood on my Prelude in 2000....back when people thought it was ugly, some still do.

Besides weight savings I've always liked the look of it. I just find maybe more now the general public knows about CF as they see it in more applications and more car companies are offering it on cars (real or fake)

I just care that its real CF. You can overdo it sure, but I appreciate someone who spends a little money for an original piece or even wrapping.

I love CF, I'd say I have an addiction, but no overkill...especially on the Z, its so classy

On my 40th though, Carbon Fiber is the perfect compliment.

FYI, the 370Z has a Carbon Fiber driveshaft
