That's really a personal preference question.....

I got the carbon accent version, I have another detailed post about it if that helps.

I think what makes a nice car build is contrast and of course the very fine up close details.

I personally like CF accents but never overdone. Depends on the look you want to accomplish for the entire car so consider your vision for the finished product. Otherwise you'd think it's cool but it does not match. Just like this kid who think he's GQ. Enjoy your build.

If it were me? Hell ya! But that's bc I'm trimmed out in cf... But warning... Once you start adding carbon it's really addicting..

I like CF, but Like Raf said, not too much. I think the Amuse kit has just the right amount on rear and front bumpers.
