This is/was a fad in my opinion. If you wanted to wrap your interior with Di-Noc, I would have suggested at least using the brushed aluminum version for the interior. On the exterior, it doesn't make a lot of sense to use the Di-Noc as the weave in certain areas will become distorted, and you'll eventually notice scratches in the texture from the elements taking their toll.

Looks ok, even though I could see a few imprefections with the weaver pattern on the interior.

Personelly the wrap is ok way of going things if you on a tight badget. But prefer to go with actual CF pieces. They seem to be getting cheaper to come by, still not cheap but more accessible. Plus you get that nice gloss finish.

But like a lot of readers will have their opinion IMO.

I don't mind the wrap on the interior, but it looks really out of place on the exterior.
