Hydro dip?

I just bought an AERODYNAMICS kit for a2009 x5. Thinking about Hydro dipping it in carbon fiber. Thoughts?

My vote is color match. Carbon is ok to use for slight accents, that would be entirely too much.

I probably wouldn't for the kit as it would probably get rock chips unless you get a layer of protective film on it.

Not a fan of hydrodip in CF because the printed pattern looks fake and that's maybe because the finish is too glossy.
