Sorry I don't have pics, but I think the Fiber Images car has one. Actually, maybe it doesn't. I don't know. Sorry can't be of any help.

Did you happen to find out about the lights though?

Hmm yeah that would look cool the only downside is they are probably expensive, and if you run them into a curb you are fuxxored.

hmm .. you would think that it would have at least CF fenders and eyebrows, considering the whole front end is basically CF.

But, Fimber Images goesn't make CF bumpers .. they make hoods, 1 piece front ends, fenders, trunks, and eyebrows.

lol...NOT feelin it....

hood is nice, but bumper? yeah then you'd have to replace majority of the rest of the car since it just wouldn't flow well, especially when viewed from the side.

Plus the safety issue...think about how rigid carbon fiber would be during a head-on collision.

life > cf bumper

hmm, I'd think the strength of carbon fiber really depends upon the type of cf they use and how many layers they use and what methods they use to 'press' the carbon layers together. They've been using em on bike frames for years now and I only know of the Mclaren f1 with all carbon fiber shell for a production car...but yeah brah, whatever floats yer bizzoat...it's all bout the ingenuity :
