carbon fiber wrapping the ss spoiler (I know sounds rice!)

Well honestly i have always wanted the center section and sides of my spoiler to be carbon fiber but didnt want to fork over the 279 dollars to do so. And i believe look mods other then rims should be fairly cheap. So im going to carbon fiber wrap it with the rvinyl.com carbon fiber type 3 and this will only cost me 35 bucks to do which i dont think is a bad idea because in the end it will look practically the same. So i figured i would give it a try but i tried searching and see no how tos or anything to disassemble the ss spoiler because i want to do this the right way and not **** up. So i would appreciate it if someone could give me detailed instructions on how to disassemble the spoiler. Yes i know its vinyl and im wrapping my spoiler but do u think im going to get use out of a real carbon fiber wing. NOPE it will be close to the same in the end.

they sell real carbon fiber sheets on ebay and im thinking of putting it on the roof of my car cus the paint is fading, i already have a carbon fiber hood. i dont see no shame in wrapping it with vinyl but you should get the real carbon fiber sheets, they sell for around $60 on ebay. that way i dont take no slack from people saying i have fake carbon fiber on my roof.

our roof has a slight curve to it but a real carbon fiber sheet wouldnt work around my wing. idc if people say oh its fake i would just say it was cheap and looks the exact same.

Well I doesn't really look the same. The real cf has a 3d look to it while the vinyl isn't. The vinyl cf isn't real shiny either like the cf
