Do you like this carbon weave for BMW i8?

This is new trend of your i8, I would like to know if you like it.

I've been seeing more and more forged carbon coming out lately. Its nice but I dont think it will replace the weave version.

It simply looks scuffed to me, I prefer the weave look.

I don't like it at all. I think it looks messy. Maybe I'm old school but it doesnt have a clean flow which bothers me. I am going to stick with weave.

Not a fan of the "forged" look but I'm seeing more and more of it out there.
