diagonal weave not matching up and all kinds of other problems that can
make your wrapped pieces look terrible.
^1x1 plain weave
^2x2 twill weave
piece on the left is 2x2, piece on the right (Mugen) is 1x1.
also I much prefer a matte finish vs. a glossy one.
especially on the interior.
in the engine bay a gloss finish isn't so bad, but inside...
I think it makes it look cheap.

carbon fiber is not the most luxuriest of materials out there.
but wrapping existing OEM parts, if you do it yourself or know someone,
isn't all that expensive.
