Does the fake "carbon fiber" not strike anyone as rice? The concept was executed with great quality, but the idea of anything fake seems out of place on a highend car. Seems like something that belongs on some Honda fanboys ride.

I would love to see how it would look on a Sapphire Black E60
However, this one had an oxidized hood/roof, and wanted me to do it in matte to give him a two tone look.

How my material compares to your standard clear coated cf:
And here's a picture of a real cf hood that was finished in the same manner/style as the cf vinyl that I am using, just so you can see how these real pieces of cf compares to my cf material.
