That looks sick on the white car!
Is that hydrocarbon or real carbon fiber? Where'd you get it and how much $ (if you don't mind my asking)?

From your pics it looks like they did a very nice job on the installation.
I'm curious if anyone makes a high quality stainless-steel looking version.

actually he shouldn't clear coat it especially since it's vinyl. If he were to clear coat it, the appearance of CF would be degraded. Refer to

Ok so question to the OP. You only had the halo wrapped right? I think you may have overpaid, $225 seems incredibly steep. A quick search showed 48x48 sheet about $112bucks, and there's no way you needed that much for the halo. Either way, over 100bucks for install definitely doesn't sound right.
