I just googled their website and found some pics of their products on a 370z and other cars. There are some descriptions too.
Shine Auto Project

Looks like the red Venaci 370z has their kit. Look up VIP Status on this forum and Youtube. They have tons of pics and video of their car for you to compare.
Yes sir. 2 kinds of weave for CF. And as per Nitrouz post, the plain weave does look sick on his 40th.

Thanks Xan! I'm actually going to put to consideration how many like plain vs twill.

I have other twill CF on my car, including the wheels so I want it to match.
Hmm... The thing is, I'm afraid that if I order Twill, it might look ricey bcoz Nitrouz' setup already looks sick. I have no plans of painting the kit that's why I want CF that will perfectly blend with the 40th color code.

You're setup is sick man. So its plain huh? I may have to go to that route then... Unless someone has a twill weave on their 40th, that would be interesting how the outcome will be / is.

Sir, big favor from a stranger!
Can you get a snap shot of that rear add-on both on close, mid-close and far? I would greatly appreciate it sir!
