Holy shit dude! Me too! I just saw some of it on youtube. Looks easy as crap. And no freaking air bubbles at all!

 

yep, use heat and some practice and you're on your way! after you install the bits back onto the car, heat it up again so the material settles well. let it cure overnight.

 

Sooo what do y'all think of a carbon fiber Fit? Lol Seems attemptable

 

That is beautiful, Eye candy

Thank for the link,

 

Do it... I don't have the balls to.

 

 

I would if it wasn't so pricey !

 

Hmmmmm how may square feet y'all think the fit is? I'm really liking this idea lol.

 

does your car sit outside? mine sits outside where the sun hits it all day so I'm a bit concerned about get the 3m on my hood.

thanks

 

What do you guys think about after putting the vinyl, giving it a few coats of clear? Because honestly that's how real carbon fiber is, I don't particularly like the textured feel of the carbon because an actual piece of carbon fiber is usually smooth (ex. a hood).

Do you guys think its a good idea?

 

Good thing you got no balls. I would totally shoot you for that.

 

I bought my 3M DI-NOC from this guy:

Free Ship 3M DI-NOC Carbon Fiber Vinyl Black 36" X 60" | eBay

This roll is 36x60 compared to the 36x48 offered by carbonfiberfilm for $90. I was afraid it was going to be a reproduction, since it came from China. The material looks real to me and has "3M" on the peel off sheet. The first roll I received suffered damage along the edges causing bubbles to appear when rolled out. I told the seller...and now he is sending me an additional roll for free. After seeing the pics above...it looks like I can fix the first roll with a heat gun. I am just waiting for the right weather to attempt the install. Vinyl wrap places in my area charge $45 an hour for labor to install. They are telling me it will take two hours. No thanks. I will attempt to do it myself with a buddy.

I like where this thread is going. lol

 

di-noc is the shit! i did my mirror caps over a year ago but couldn't get one small bubble to ever lay down, i personally think large panels look too fake aand laugh when i see them (just me) the pics of the stuff on the Z look great, and concur that the roof should have been peeled
i'd just wrap the car in a matte color vinyl as to not be laughed at as "trying to look real" here is a couple things my friend has wrapped at his tint/wrap shop Envision Window Tint | Home

here is curvy




here are a couple things turned a completely different color - all matte

put his logo under it

almost done

finished


matte green BMW anyone?


motorbike?? from gloss black to matte white




and an audi


a VW


vinyl can make anything better


he does stuff i would never even try, and i've been doing fleet graphics for 10 years
vinyl is so adaptable, and all these projects are reversable!

 

this is really tempting... someone should attempt to do the radio surround and upper glove box

 

I did that

 

Pictures please

 

Tits or it didn't happen.

 

I am going to re do it. could not get all the wrinkles out.

 

you did pretty much exactly what i plan on doing- except im gonna switch it up a bit around the headunit so i dont have to do all the silver haha.
looks great! your entire car does; i thought i had a lot of shit done within the first couple months but damn O.O
