The rear rim looks really good, but rather toonish, therefor not matching up well with the rest of the car. I think the CF looks pretty dang good. It could maybe use some reflections...being that CF hoods are usually pretty glossy.

good start! really all the rear rim might need is more of a polished or chrome look instead of white/silver...reflection in the dish looks good, but wouldn't reflect that much unless it was chrome.

If possible, you should make the pattern on the CF a little bigger. I had to lean up to my comp to see it, otherwise it was just a black hood. Looks good though.

Also you need to fix the shadow of the car, Your drop is overlapping

Sweet dish

Much improved! I still think I would add a refelection of a cloud or something. But the updated helped a ton.
