I've been wanting to do this for awhile and purposely didnt tell anyone in fear that someone would beat me to it...I WANT to be the first Balt to do it....
the G35 I saw that had this done was so shitty up close...far away, yea it looked badass, then you realized it was vinyl and the guy prolly did it himself, cuz it was bubbly and wasnt straight...I got the idea to do the real thing...thanks for all the support, I feel special you all are watching me in the not-creepy-way!

the roof is getting wrapped in the carbon fiber
I got the sheets off Ebay..you have to get the right kind though, theres some cheap carbon on ebay....bought the sheet for about 60 bucks with shipping...he will wrap anything...he was startin to get crazy with ideas..he was suggesting, rims, door handles, around the wheel wells, but I wasn't havin that, just the roof! lol....I didn't ask him pricing, he'll have prices for me when I pick up the sample which hopefully is by the end of the week, but we will see.

Yeah, I remember that. Looked like he was doing it in his backyard. lol. But it was coming along nicely last time I checked, which was quite a while ago. He was putting a lot of time into it though.

More than likely what he will be doing is scuffing the roof, and then laying down carbon fiber cloth, and then resining (sp) it to the roof with multiple coats of clear resin, and then I would presume, shoot a few coats of clear-coat over it once its been wet-sanded and buffed. Thats how I d do it anyways, thats really how you can wrap just about anything in CF.
