Doesn't look bad but it's not a patch on the real thing

Neither is the price....

I guess if you are happy with looking the part its fine. It makes 'carboning' something impossible possible.

you tube it... the process is amazing whether you like the result or not.

I find it odd that you'd go to the trouble of making some components look a little bit like they're carbon fibre, but leave the remainder of the engine bay covered in shît.
