Yeah I saw this earlier in the week. There's another guy that's making those here on the forums too.

^^ The Ralliart one isn't even real carbon fiber, just a pattern. I believe.

Its a gel coat so it will not be super shiny. It doesn't look as good as CF that's been clear coated, but the gel coat should last longer and will be more resistant to fade.

I agree with that, I've seen both part with gel coat and with just the clear coat, the part with clear coat turn yellowing so it doesn't last as long, but some parts has both gel coat and clear coat to make it super shinny and last long as well.
