If its Gold it has to be SHINY GOLD not MATT.

Then it will be more "striking"

My friend saw in States, Strakes in Carbon Fibre finished. He say Very sweeeee...

I might want to order and price about SG$150-170 freight all in. Change my sliver to Carbon Fibre to match my Duck Tail Spoiler Which i still looking out for price now.

Anyone interested? I can do bulk order and save of freight charges.

Let me know soon.....

INXS, mannygoh...
i only have silvers for now.

imho - CF strakes dun bring out the shape and cut. CF is close to black.
i match a set of CF on mine before, so so... a silver stands out more.

i may consider the chrome ones soon.
i need to see the stuff if it's really that chrome/shiny.
