yeh, carbon would be good, only issue i see with a panel is it will need so much sticky stuff it will never come off without damaging something, and vinyl would be difficult to get around the curves etc

yeh, hence you need something a bit lighter in colour, and shiny too not matt

another option is to source a second bumper (bottom part), and get that done in paint, then you can always put original one back on
