Never done it myself but I believe you can use the rear side window roller blinds for cars. The mesh makes the effect look good.

Brillant play on words.
A good sprayer will be able to create that look. Pm Janos aka Nagy Designs. He runs talplow and is amazing when it comes to painting shells.

tool box liner works great, maplins used to do a roll of yellow non slip material, very similar effect to carbon, i think if memory serves me correct you need to do the black first, i did it the other way round and trashed a shell

Yeah, tool box liner/anti-slip mat, there are many ways you can lay up the colours, but either way, you got to get the colour down in one coat.
