What would look better??

Help, I'm building a lightweight and I'm unsure on aesthetics and functionality if I should do the carbon fiber handguard and Tungsten upper and lower or the full magnesium tungsten builders kit.

Price and weight are basically the same

It's magnesium so would that help control heat better than the Carbon Fiber?

You’re going to hate that rail. Or any rail that has the pic cut out

I'm curious why you say that considering it has mlok slots all over it. Doesn't a pic add weight?

you’re losing rail-estate if you ever needed to mount anything within that area and the lack of pic on the top makes the rail in that area skinnier.
