Maybe I should do this to my car. Both pieces on my car are starting to fade really badly.

You may be able to sand your faded pieces with fine sandpaper to restore them. When prepping my pieces I sanded them and they looked pretty good.

There is a really good clip on you tube showing how to cover parts in CF.

You can get a roll of CF fabric on ebay for pretty cheap. There is also a good variety of different colors and weaves.

I'm not a fan of epoxy you can get at the local auto parts store due to the fact it has a brownish tint. Look for epoxy that dries clear.

Did you Clear coat it? You should find a way to protect it from fading, applying 303 Aerospace Protectant every couple of weeks should work.
