Carbon
no its not vinyl and not wrapped its dipped into a pattern that is floating on water in this case carbon pattern. which turns to a liquid once a chemical is applied. So when a piece is being dipped through the carbon fiber pattern where ever the water goes so will the pattern. Meaning it gets into all the tight areas and corners that vinyl will never go. Use all PPG automotive paints. So no chipping, fading. Better quality paint then whats on your car do to a hardener that is mixed in with the clear which is the final step. Can do a matte, satin or high gloss clear. In the case of the pics all done in High gloss to match a members other carbon pieces as well mine to match the rear diffuser and front spoiler.

Yes you are! hehehehe. You can have anything you want fabricated out of Carbon if you got the pockets to do so, and even when you are done for that hundreds if not thousands $$$ more you can say to people that it is real carbon fiber, even tho I don't think many people will ask if it real or not. It is not some cheap vinyl or not di-noc wrap that in high heat will pull off on hard edges and corners. This is the new generation of re doing things in carbon (look). This my friend is called talent.
There will be more pictures of the parts on the car coming very soon for everyone to see how high quality this work really is.

I must admit that I am kind of a CF snob, look what I did to my previous car, here and here... So yes it pains me to see fake CF, as it lower the value of all the real CF around...

I just don't see the advantage of paying not a little but a lot more to get a real carbon overlay over a process like this, which again is overlay that is just like paint.
