Carbon fiber paint? Much cheaper and easier to do...
Matte version on my partners car, you can do shiny as well.

Fyi, AP carbon fiber side vents you need to send yours to them for core swap. Not sure about the Vorsteiner.

There are paint shops that do this here in Greece. I am sure there should be some in the US as well. Its a dual layer process, color over color.
Here is my abarth front spoiler done the same


and rear diffuser

I bought mine from DB Carbon out of Germany. They take a while to make and arrive but worth the wait. I also purchased several other pieces: mirrors, center console, rear wing, both door trim pieces, B-Pillar Seat Belt pass through, and door stop. Here are some pics...
