    i may be wront but I just saw a pic where someone used cf "vinal"

    is that just like stuff on a roll that u can wrap things in???

    I think KRU could help me here.. he seems like someone I would be buddying up to to learn stuff..

    im wanting to wrap some stuff in cf material if this is possible..

    for example, the fake CF trim panels in the interior.. id like it to look a lil more real that that... where do I get this stuff???

    yes there is a CF vinyl, it looks fake and cheap. i would get the real thing than wrap the pieces in the real CF and do it that way. Kru yes he seems to know al lot about CF he the guy to go to

    well thats the problem.. Ive bearly conquered FG... ive heard CF is hard as heck.. where would I even get those materials?? the pic I saw was some cf vinal on a bumper and it looked good to me.. Im not TOOO picky even though i am a girl lol... but surly the wrap would look more real than the fake wannabe cf trim pieces in the car.. u do know what pieces I mean right?

    Be careful with carbon fiber vinal it fades fast if its going to be sitting in the sun a lot be careful, but there is some vinals out there that looks just like the real stuff

    yeah i agree with Jake, i bought a CF vinyl a while back on ebay. the product looked alright when it came but once i tried to place it over my interior, it didn't look good at all. it looked like....real cheap cf. :D
