The rear panel is also completely in carbon fiber. I decided to pull the carbon fiber finish way down instead of just where the taillights are, and I think it's much better."

This is 100% what I would love to see. Even just making the rear part under the tail lights in carbon fiber/black looks so good now. It hides that big hump in the back. Even though Nissan realistically won't elongate the wheel base, if they just made the front grille/fascia similar to this they'd have a one of the best looking sports cars out right now.
Those were some smart incremental moves. The front bumper elongation itself evens out the grill situation, and I agree just carrying more accent black strikes more resemblance of the inspiration models.


Kinda wish people would stop showcasing the cars with unrealistic drop. An execution of a more realistic OEM package interpretation is more impressive imo.
