I know some smaller Companys who doing the same look aswell. As im pretty new to the Carbon Game i sadly dont know how i could archive a result like that. Maybe you guys could help me with that! Here are some pictures of the parts:

Here are some pictures of the parts: It looks like the kind of weave texture you would get when a release film is pulled from a cured part. In this case the back side of the part would be the moulded side, then finish the top surface with a suitable soft release film. It can then vacuum into the contours of the weave. Note you also need a release film that is more of a matt or satin finish rather than gloss. Fastacraft Facebook page
