Will look super! Go for it!
All half-arsed jobs, where an easier, cheaper solution has been chosen look amazing. Fact.

Carbon wrapping is chavy as fuck.
Its like "look at me, i've got carbon!"
"ps. Don't look too close because its not real."

right just to put things a bit staight, carbon wrapping is a nice touch in some cases,
3M vinyl is not a wrap , it will bend and do certain things dont get me wrong but yet is not a real wrap vinyl,
Also it has a matt effect
The stuff i have has a gloss effect and looks alot better than the 3m,
But if you put it next to real carbon fibre they look milies apart , due to the vinyl is a vinyl and the carbon is a fibre
