Mine is painted piano black wood, but I might even wrap them with carbon fiber.

If you go the carbon fiber route, try 3M Di-Noc, easy to form using a hair dryer and has excellent adhesion qualities. A lot of eBay vendors do offer it.

Do a youtube search for it, you'll be surprised how it turns out. Have done a few plain center dash areas with carbon fiber and wood pattern.
