Idea for my louvers

I have the factory louvers for my '82 Berlinetta. They have a broken mounting bracket so i have yet to put them on. Last week I was looking at them and noticed how terrible the original paint job looked, many people talk about repainting it which Im looking at. Then i though of it might look nice to do the carbon fiber sheets on them so it looks like carbon fiber, i just wanted to see what you guys thought.

Re: Idea for my louvers

its been done, atleast on the iroc louvers, theres a purple z28 on here with them, they dont look to bad in my opinion but honestly kinda R1CE if you ask me.

edit, i realize your talking about the rear window louvers, it would be the exact same process i would imagine as hood louvers, but i still have the same opinion.
