I am contemplating going with Anvil Auto's carbon fiber rear bumper, deck lid, notched spoiler, hood and cowl panel on my 69 Camaro. How well do these parts hold up on a car that is driven 5,000-10,000 miles a year? I will not be painting the parts so would the satin or gloss finish hold up better?

Check with Anvil... my understanding is that some types of resin have a uv protectant in them, making them damn near ready to run out of the box. Others don't which in those cases you'd want to clear them either the satin or gloss whatever you prefer . Once you do that you should be good to go . Keep in mind there's lots of cars from the manufacturers now which are sporting "exposed" carbon .
