not real noticeable, it's up to you. Looks ok.

I'm not an huge fan of CF for purely decorative functions, but I do like the look of the scoops over the stock units.

The V-Max is a very masculine looking bike to begin with, so to my eye, the manifold cover and side panels look out of place. Personally, if I were to "Mad Max" a V-Max, I would lean more toward nickle plated manifolds, and brushed aluminum side panels, with lots of holes drilled into them.

I have the vboost kit the swedish guy on ebay sells. It's installed but currently unplugged. Vboost phasing in @ 3k is problematic when traffic is slow going. It also murders my mileage.
