Carbon Fiber :)

What do you guys think?

I also did a custom steering wheel badge as you can see in the pics.

I think it would flow if you had a hood and trunk and wrapped the roof. But looks cool none the less.

Yeah I'm getting them...I just got my car back from paint and I needed some more projects. Wrapping the hood, roof and trunk are next.

I like it. Think it would flow good if you have carbon wrapped bowtie, interior trim, and what mkulrey said about the hood/trunk

Well I'm saying that, the hood, trunk, and roof and i think it would look sick. Kind of like a 2 tone paint scheme... But with cf!

I'll take a picture of the car tomorrow, but honestly the stock Cobalt SS comes with a black one where I replaced it with CF and you can't even really tell the difference...

Cool project for the sake of a project. But it doesn't improve anything and looks like a gay carbon wrap and everyone knows it. Hey, I've been guilty of doing similar **** in the past but your way better off using time and, money, and effort on something useful. But now that you've proved your usefulness at wrapping **** in vinyl it should promptly be removed because it looks like ****.

I literally LOL'd at your comment. I had the extra vinyl so I did this...I think it looks fine, you can barely notice it, and I'm not removing it because I did it last night and I've had people comment on it already and I took it to GM this morning and they said they want me to do it to some of their cars.
