Carbon Fiber Woes, ... need some advice. Options

[KAOS]

I'm having a hard time completing the vision I have for my car because of the lack of parts readily available.

Here's my dilemma; I need a CF ST205 hood.

- RTP costs an arm and a leg to ship overseas (great quality materials, but definitely out of my price range)
- Seibon make a CF replica of the ST205 hood, but I've heard nightmarish stories about their fitment; enough to make me NOT want their product.
- not a fan of the look alikes (ie, Cyclone, etc)

Here is my thought; the ST205 oem hood is amazingly light. and the best part is, its OEM and fits great!

I'm thinking I will just use a CF wrap to achieve the look I need, as the performance of weight reduction probably wouldn't be worth the cost right now.

3M Di-NOC Carbon Fiber Vinyl wrap has come highly recommended. But the look of it is obviously fake. Is it feasible to wrap with the vinyl overlay, and then put resin / hardener on top?

I would attempt the REAL carbon fiber wrap, but I'm afraid I would screw up the weave on a big peice like the hood. Can't have that.

Thoughts or ideas guys? How big of a sheet would I need to properly cover the ST205 hood?
