Im liking the evo x mod the cobalts are doin and i wanna do the same except be different so i am gonna wrap the center grill bar and lower center bar with 3m di-noc carbon fiber film instead of paint it. tell me what you think, is 3m di-noc carbon fiber film good? is there any other better cf film wrap? thanks

i think there was a show car that was entirely wrapped in that stuff. i dont know how well it holds up as ive never seen it and it was a show car. but it is possible to do lol

someone on here has their roof wrapped in that stuff. find him and pm and see how its holding up

edit: i think its BLAZIN07SS

yeah i think its gonna look sick! it will match the rest of the cf i have like cf SS spoiler, cf window pillars, cf front bowtie, cf SS emblems. i wonder if i could put this on my ss/sc rims and look good? hmm maybe that would be tooo rice

iTrader: (6)

ive seen it done in black vynil before didnt look bad but they couldve done a better job of it plus it looks best when you do the whole inside of the air damn not just the bottom of it

BLAZIN07SS

iTrader: (7)

don't wax it! i got a little bit on the corner accidentally and i can't get it out

cobalt523

iTrader: (6)

thats for the dry cf, im geting the standard cf vynal, so i should be able to wax it right?

ls1fbody

same thing. He just meant it looks like "dry carbon"

mofofernando

iTrader: (3)

you could always spray it with clear but it still wont look as good

cobalt523

iTrader: (6)

so the film isnt gonnabe shinny? and i heard nlt to spray it with cler coat

mofofernando

iTrader: (3)

its not shiny and ive never heard not too but i know practically nothing about vinyl wrap hah

cobalt523

iTrader: (6)

damn i wanted it to be shinny! i work at advance auto and we have a shinny cf wrap vynal made by pilot but i dont know bout that stuff

here's an article that carbonfiberfilm.com did about clear coating the di-noc. seems like it would work pretty well. just dont do too many coats of clear. and the clear they used in the article if from lowes, not HD.

hope that helps.

if it turns out well i might get some for my silver interior trim parts(i hate the black radio and hvac with the silver trim, and my silver trim liked to flake off in the old ss...)

cobaltguy889

nope don't do it. Then you fall into "that" catagory
