Carbon roof overlay

I seen people vinyl wrap and use the CarbonFiber wrap for their roofs but has anyone actually seen this? I was thinking of ordering it but its back ordered plus I'm not to sure of the fitment. Does anyone know of a company who sell this mod as well?

It adds weight, why do you think this is better than wrap ?

Someone at my office has this on their AW E92. It looks really good and I definitely did a double-take the first time I saw it.

It's pricey, but if you like it, go for it!

Yeah not to sure about the maintenance and the durability on it it's a nice mod for sure and is pricey. I might have to do a bit more research on it before I pull the trigger on this one

this is honestly as about as pricey as a CF trunk, hood, or even a diffuser. The key to this would be getting it and getting a really really good clear coat resprayed over it. Nice find!!!!

Don't see why you'd need a clear coat over this. It's finished just like the CF Performance spoiler which has a durable coating already. The reason this is pricey is because of the quality of the CF and finish. If you've ever worked with real CF pieces, they are light as heck, so you're not adding much more weight to the vehicle.
