Still debating if I should do it or not, being that my front lip is matte black (not cf matte).
Yah i have used some epoxy resin before like this one:

its made for carbon fiber. but the carbon fibre i used was actual weaved carbon fiber and it takes time since i had to sand it down and the multiple coats of resin. All in all if you go this route its pretty much oem looking depending how well u do it but thats how carbon fiber parts are made.

Hope this helps. not sure what kind of wrap you used but you can always try adding resin on top of some test subjects. and to be honest i think it will still look good, the only difference would be that the weaves dont pop out as
much. Here is a post
