Greetings all,
I just took delivery on my Red Sport yesterday (after waiting 5 months) so I decided to register on the forum. I thought I'd share a couple of pics showing what the black accessories and carbon fiber look like on something other than red. When I was originally placing my order, there seemed to be a severe lack of photographs showing some of those different trim combinations...

So for anyone in the market who may be considering these options on their purchase, here's my new car for reference. Hopefully this helps someone out there like me that couldn't find any example images. Cheers, and nice to meet you all...

Welcome aboard! And thank you for signing up. That top picture isn't working but the back sure looks good. That's a hell of a car and it really has nice road presence. I'm glad Infiniti FINALLY put some real power into these cars...

Yes, it is! It looks awesome! THAT is the color combo I would have got as well. It looks perfect with the black wheels. Are you adding tint to the windows?

You know that color stays clean forever, right? You won't necessarily need to wash your new car until next year. :p

Yes, I actually had them tint the windows for me... as dark as you can legally in TX. Although you can't really tell in the photos. And yes I friggin love graphite shadow... this is my 3rd Infiniti coupe that I've owned in that color, lol. Honorable mention to liquid aluminum though.
 
Looks great! Are those aftermarket wheels? How much extra did it cost to get the grill surround and window surround blacked out? Is that grime the factory or dealer? Is that why it took 5 months?
 
Sorry for the late reply... those are the stock wheels that I had dipped by the dealer. There was originally a set of black wheels that were supposed to be available from the factory... some time between when I ordered the car and when it arrived, the Infiniti website took down the option... and the car arrived without them. So the salesperson called me up to look at the car, to which I replied; that's a nice car, but it's not mine... where are the black wheels? Then they tried to up-charge me again for the dip and I told them to f$%k off... so they dipped them for the same price I was originally supposed to pay for the factory option. The grille is a factory option that comes black with the illuminated Infiniti emblem for an extra $400. Not sure why it took them 5 months to deliver, it shouldn't have been just the grille as that part comes in a box that weighs no more than 10-15 lbs... I assume it was because I had a fairly specific configuration and they were backed up with the initial orders, and then it had to be shipped on a container vessel from Japan. Still took longer than I'd been told though.
 
I'm not able to view the pics. Really wanted to see what the CF looks like.
