I would recommend you buy CF ones to begin with. The wraps never look good.
I agree that wraps are usually shitty. That's why I am leaning toward painting them with either carbon look spray kit or maybe high gloss paint. Any experience on those paints?
Nope and don't see the point. Why not just get cf to begin with? Less work and concerns. If you're going replica, cf ones don't cost much more than non-cf.
Really? At least in EU so far what I have seen the non cf kit is about 500-600€ and cf replicas 1500->

I am willing to do the work that is not the problem as I enjoy working on cars, furnitures etc. Just curious about the end results.

BTW I dont have any special desire to for cf (look) so gloss would probably look as good (not sure about, though)
Good lord that's way too much for non-OEM reps. Where are you seeing these prices?
