I like that you are having fun personalizing your car. But I dont get wrapping plastic in carbon fiber looking plastic. Its plastic. The whole point of cf is that it is lightweight and strong. That sill is neither. Just seems inauthentic to me.
But, to each his own and have fun.

I tried doing a small spoiler you can hardly see when standing with wrap CF. Couldnt stand it, it looked fake. Its definitely got a look to it and anybody who knows anything about real cf and wrap can spot it a mile away. Thats not to say %99 of people cant tell
But I have a hard time doing something like that to a good car. Maybe a average car.

Did you do the install? That's really cheap... How did you deal with the grooves?
Imo, I think it's fantastic. It's an upgrade over the boring plastic. Who cares if it looks fake (not that I can tell in a photo), you put it in a place that is truly for your eyes only
