Ricky49 Posted March 2, 2010 Share Posted March 2, 2010 Looks a good finish. Not to keen on the carbon dash look myself. Each to their own and all that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Raven Posted March 2, 2010 Author Share Posted March 2, 2010 How much was that Russ, if you dont mind me asking? Looks tidy mate. Not sure on the price break down as they did sign write all my work van, tinted the mrs landrover and sorted the spoiler out. But they can do my roof for £100 so i guess around £100? Im seeing them again in a week or so, i will ask. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stonkin Posted March 2, 2010 Share Posted March 2, 2010 nice mate, they made a good job of the ignition panel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Raven Posted March 2, 2010 Author Share Posted March 2, 2010 (edited) All of it is spot on, the only bit that shows is if you look at the heater controls you will see silver, this is where they didnt go all the way in. My fault they thought the buttons would come out to the lip not sit inside like the clock does. I think some gloss black should hide it.

Notts_TT Posted March 3, 2010 Share Posted March 3, 2010 The carbon vinyl is called 3M DI_NOC carbon vinyl... Its about £60 for a sheet of 1220 x 1000mm... I have some in stock and im partly wrapping my supra in it.... Dan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ark Posted March 4, 2010 Share Posted March 4, 2010 So, before you black-to-blacked it, it was kind of matt finish? Non-reflective? Sounds good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kill1308 Posted March 4, 2010 Share Posted March 4, 2010 That looks like a really nice job, wasn't expecting it to be that good for some reason. I saw the words carbon wrap and immediately thought the worst, but that's some nice work they've done there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Raven Posted March 4, 2010 Author Share Posted March 4, 2010 So, before you black-to-blacked it, it was kind of matt finish? Non-reflective? Sounds good. Yeah it was matt ish finish. It didnt look great on the dash panels IMO It just seemed to dark to show off the carbon effect. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I posted a thread three weeks back with some pics of his WRX. Im going to CW the dash, and when I do my headlight refurb do the headlights to as I have just bought a pair to put on the Supe while I refurb mine. Looks a tidy job that, the 3M stuff is nice to use just needs patience, a steady hand and a nice sharp craft knife:D My mate even Carbon wrapped his lighter for good measure;) Scotty Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

caseys Posted March 18, 2010 Share Posted March 18, 2010 I will be trying some rear lights non facelift, and for the big one some headlights. My roof is being done soon As in the internal black surround? Will be interested to see that. You having to unseal the lights for them for that? Or are they dealing with it all? Your TRD blade, was it painted and then you had it wrapped? Or was it carbon fibre and a bit worn and re-wrapped? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
