Carbon bars are a nice upgrade; weight reduction (< 200 g) and vibration attenuation. Geometry (width, reach, drop) and comfort (same factors plus bar cross-section) are key considerations. "Aero" handlebars (to the extent that they lower CdA or otherwise improve aerodynamics) may not be as comfortable as ovalized tops.
