Do you not get reflections from that trim on the windscreen in some conditions?
Interesting option if you do not.

Unless you have some good UV tint, thst piece is going to lift the moment the skirts come out. (Warm weather).

EDIT, I’ll withhold that statement as fact as it appears you have experience

. Woulda loved to see apply the cf on your interior project but matching to the OEM carbon MP sw trim.

Props for execution, idea is just over thought IMO. Satin clear it or sell / trade for stock, choose a new canvas (and new cf weave, 2x2 twill makes piano black sound mystical at this point).

Upper Dash panel trim are best kept satin/matte as it will 100% cause reflection, and one day be more distracting than you could have anticipated.

Perhaps….

Maybe not so much in the cloudy UK 😅
