Carbon Fiber Matte Interior NOW GLOSSY

so decided the matte finish on the red Kevlar needed to go and decided to change the finish to a glossy finish. Which do you prefer? Matte red or glossy

Yea the thing about matte, you cant use ANYTHING other than WARM water and a clean rag. With glossy, you can wax it if you want, detail spray doesnt matter.

Matte was very hard when removing finger prints... I dont know how they got there but they werent mine lol

ahh or a ferrari

Ive never seen a full interior civic with carbon fiber but have seen Porsche, Audi, Lambo, Ferrari.... but lots of people like the original look. It depends on preference. Some people even get the M3 and have a sunroof instead of the carbon fiber roof.

Matte looks way better. More professional looking imo. But it's whatever you want.
