Aww shucks nobody liked the air filter look on their car :( lol

There's tons of different weave patterns for composites for various applications. Each has a strength and weakness. When I was making the hull for my engineering project many moons ago when I was still in college, we stuck with what was cheap vs. what was actually good for our application due to budgets. Would have been nice to play with some basalt fiber on that project.

Don't get me wrong, I can totally see a hydrodip in that pattern. Maybe a valve cover done in that style. It's definitely a personal preference thing, so no right or wrong answer, or disrespect intended.

I would absolutely rock a wrap in that color and pattern over some of the wraps I've seen out there

No offence taken, I personally wouldn't wrap my whole car in that pattern but I would do a valve cover or something like you said lol. Maybe if it was a drift car where crazy/ridiculous, over the top stuff is common...
