i tried similar overlays in real carbon fiber long time ago on a car i had and the 3M just kept peeling back on some edges with smaller radius. i mean i used the alcohol to clean and even applied some adhesion promotor but didnt work.
if urs fail another route might be to try hydro dipping. wood grains usually turn out nice unlike faux carbon fiber look ive seen in person. :D
I have a kit in my FiT for 8 years and it still looks good.
I used paint prep grease and wax remover before installing this kit as it had just been wiped down. :D
that black paint looks A LOT better! things like that bugs me too. nice job.
Just got back from a little drive and it ran better!
I know it's just putting time into it, like when you wax and vacuum the car it feels better.
Thank you kenchan have a great Monday!!

yah, when i was detailing an older car i had, i spray painted the muffler can with engine enamel matte black just for cosmetic purposes cause i could see the rusted can peeking out the bottom of the bumper ruining the look of the rear..! so yes, mods like this is normal. haha
