Finally got a hold of these after a few months of debating. They are wrapped in carbon fiber 3m di-noc. For some reason part of the middle of the trunk spoiler isn't fully flush, it just sticks up a little but, so I need to try to fix that. But overall I'm pretty happy with how it looks. The carbon fiber may look like it sticks out against the white but the plan is to wrap my roof with the same material in the next couple of weeks. So the next mod plans are, roof wrap, LCI tails probably, lower and sideskirts. I've already gotten used to the 5% tint I put on last week driving at night. Its not bad at all.

That looks great!
Makes a nice contrast with the alpine white and makes these details pop up nicely!

That actually looks really really good to me.

I usually don't like roof spoilers (find them to be completely unnecessary), but in this case, this really stand out.

It'll probably be the unpopular opinion here, but I would say leave your top unwrapped for awhile and see if you like it just like that.
