Dry Carbon

Hi forum, I'm looking for a company that offers dry carbon parts, I prefer them over wet carbon for their matte finish and slightly lower weight. Any input is welcome. Also, should I paint the parts or keep the carbon look seeing how as I'm not going to repaint my car other than the factory Metropolitan Grey Mica that it is.

Well the only reason I said anything about paint is in case the carbon doesn't look good with the color my car already is. Thanks for the forward to the other thread though. To be honest the only parts I wouldn't paint would be the hood, front and rear lip, and side skirts. I don't think the doors would look right if they weren't painted, just saying.

dry carbon is much more expensive. if you plan on painting why would the color matter. the do make a matte resin and matte clears if you want the dry apperence without the cost. depends on what you want and what you want to spend. doors are unsafe for a street vechicle btw.
