Yep. Looks like wet carbon. Now, before I start getting my hopes up...could you please explain your process on how you put these bad boys together & what kind of quality we are looking at.

make the hood a lil bit darker then the color of the car it self. If the car is red, do a red CF hood but make the hood a few shades darker red. Ive seen this on a few cars and it looks freakin hot.
