Default Grill Surround & Eyelines

I have some carbon fiber and matte black wrap sitting around (both from aero tect) aand i was wondering if i should wrap my grill surround in carbon fiber or matte black its already color matched to the black car and i have other cf accesories like emblems and pillars should i wrap the grill? and another question i think cf eyelines would look cool but does anyone have a template i can use to cut them?

Wrapping your grill in matte black would look good.

If you're going to wrap the grill in cf, do you have anything else in cf besides the emblems or pillars? Considering more cf in the future?

Matte black grill CF doesn't look as good in my opinion.

^ check out pics of her car and see how well the grill came out, enough said.

Plus her car should give you inspiration on other matte black & cf projects in the future. Good luck.
