    It's savage stuff but to be honest no matter how well it's done it will always look like vinyl. I have a sample of it here il throw up a good close up shot later. It will never had the same 3d effect of propper carbon and will be matt all the time unlike real carbon which has a clear coating over it.

    Cheers

    Yeah, the viynl will always not look right compared to real carbon, but personally, I wouldn't let that bother me too much if I where you. I actually prefer the look of the matt viynl to real carbon.
