Oh really? I dont think paint could look like real CF like this vinyl can lol I'm sure it'd be hella costly too.

hmm, I really think that carbon fiber doesn't belong on montes and more so on a Nissan or something, but this looks pretty good and my opinion doesn't really matter because you're making it your own, looking good!

lol ok ok ok. Thanks guys for all the comments, I really appreciate it , I think it adds a very, unique, different approach of style. Who said that carbon fiber belongs on imports? lol sure it may look great on them, but if you can pull it off, why the hell not? Set styles, don't follow. Be different

It's not that I don't like it , It just looks out of place on roof rails., But it is your Monte ..
My wife 2005 Impala SS has trim parts with carbon fiber looks..
