I went with FRP gel coated...Reason being, I just can't do the rear deffuser in CF and feel every other piece would have to match (ocd/anal).

I put mine on as is (out the box) on the car. Here is what the deffuser looks like. Hope this helps.
Please take note that when installing this product use hardwear provided and better tape (VHB). I found that taping it about half an inch from the edge helps hide the tape and only taping the top works best with supplied hardwear at the bottom. Just my
