Are the Carbondix frenchbows really made of carbon? the one I got looks like someone painted black... Has someone already tried one?

Haven't tried that bow. However, there's every chance it is made of carbon; it could just be painted in the mould, as many carbon fibre items are. Some of the resins don't like sunlight, so it's a good idea to paint the article to prevent ultraviolet degradation.
