That doesn't seem too bad considering how many times you can screw up on vinyl wrapping the part. How much would it cost to hydro dip an entire car?

That's pretty good honestly. Is that considered "real" carbon fiber?

It kind of looks like CF, but not really. You can easily tell it's a laminate. But it's cool if you like it.

Unless you have other CF parts to help compliment it will look wacky especially on a silver/grey/white G...that's just me
Agreed...need a diffuser, front splitter and spoiler to try and tie it all in and then if you dont watch out it looks like overkill and tacky...
