I have to say those wheels look a bit on the heavy side... I suggest them next.
Regardless what they say, it looks great.

Prohibitive ? Not really ..

If you buy enough and a box cutter and a titanium scalpel, I can show you how to wrap it yourself. Takes time, a keen eye and lots of patience to pull it off though !
^^ uh, that's a wrap... the OP bought actual carbon fiber bodywork. If you can't tell the difference between the products then I suppose you're the type who is okay with the utterly pointless and goofy looking fake wrap stuff.
(edit: he bought actual CF bodywork, or he had his stock stuff wrapped in real CF... either way, its not a fake wrap as far as I can tell)

You would actually be surprised at the results you can achieve with the wrap. It does not save you any weight, but yes if done right, the results you can achieve will be similar to a Akrapovic aftermarket body panel. Very similar actually.
Lets ask Mikey, the OP to shed some light on this. The more i look at the pictures, the more it looks like a wrap, but very professionally done and nice looking nevertheless.
And 'mmmnaked', check the video in the link i posted. You will see what i am talking about. I usually dont talk about stuff i dont know about, but am quick to admit a mistake. Its all cool

I'm gonna guess that the tailsection, upper and lower fairings are CF structured panels since they all look custom, and there wouldn't be any point in applying genuine CF wrap to a GF panel would there? And then the tank is just a CF wrap based on the CF appliqué on the gas cap being at level height with the tank, suggesting the tank itself has the same superficial treatment.
