I would stay away from the ebay ones..they are usually fake even when they claim not to be. i got the real deal..cf from edashkit.com. they have a ton of real carbon colors as well and i wanted a blue carbon.

I think they can look okay.
Mine is starting to come off, the adhesive doesn't hold so well anymore on some of the pieces and they have started to curl up. I think I'm going to leave just the pieces around the gauges and the center console, maybe the doors, and let the rest of it go.

the previous owner installed it, not me but it did last a good 5 years before it started peeling.
