looks awesome plannin to go carbon fiber on my car too

 

huh, i need to measure the hood on my Fit to see how much material is needed.

i have a fairly good size roll of DiNoc i use for interior bits, but i dont want to use it on exterior...

 

I would like to try this I actually saw white carbon fiber thought that might look good on my red Fit.

 

Are you doing the hood and roof or just the roof? Is there anyplace that has instructions on how to measure I do not want to order too little or too much? Also can one person do this by them self or do yo need two people?

Thanks

 

im trying to decide if i want to do gloss black roof with stock hood, or just do the CF wrap hood. the primary purpose for the hood wrap (for me) is to protect the paint. i saw on my 09 which is unprotected, it has A LOT of chips from the harsh winters we have here. salt rocks all over the place in the winter. i want to prevent that on my '12.

ive done both roof and hood cf wrap by myself. dry install too. just a heat gun and med-hard squeegee, and a knife. if i was to do the GE's roof, i would first make a cutout for the roof antenna base, then unroll outwards.

 

I was thinking of a gloss or matte black rather than carbon fiber same reason to protect the paint. Will the wrap be easy to remove without any damage to the paint?

 

hard to tell. i know from experience 3M DiNoc was not very nice to a surface after it was heat cycled above 150F. from the ad, this cf vinyl is suppose to be better than DiNoc as far as exterior use.

 

for both the 07-08 and 09-13 Fits, a 60" by 40" roll will be enough for the hood.

One can do it, though two is probably easier.

Yes, it was designed as a vehicle wrap first and foremost. DiNoc was never meant to be removed / removed without damaging what you apply it to.

+1 DiNoc is not an automotive wrap (though lots of places did and continue to see it that way...)

Hope that helps, let me know if you have any additional questions. Spring and Fall are the two best times to apply the wrap.

For a lot of Americans, October is closing out on a low note. As we head into the sunset, know that tomorrow is a new day and a new month. Sympathies for those who have lost, and a speedy recovery for all!

 

sorry i havent searched as much but im interested in wrapping my dash in carbon fiber specifically the radio and upper glove box of a 2010 fit. any idea on how to do it im not really good at these things i might ask my friend to do it.

 

The application is pretty straight forward. We have a diy here showing the application on some Camaro Emblems. We do send instructions with the material. You are going to need to remove the pieces you want to cover from the vehicle, and you will need a heat gun. Hope that helps.

 

alright ill order the 12x27 for my dash soon cant wait

 

Maybe a bit early, but we have added the Christmas Holiday shipping schedule added to the site HeadlightArmor.com Christmas Holiday Shipping Schedule

Nice shots of a customer's car. Wrapped the chrome trim rings around the headlights and taillights on this MINI Cooper S with Hexis Carbon Fiber Wrap.

The trim rings were removed, the wrap installed, then the trin rings reinstalled. The inner portion is wrapped to the back side and the outside perimiter is trimmed flush with the edge.











Let us know if you have any questions about the material or its application.
