_Shane_ Posted February 1, 2012 Share Posted February 1, 2012 all you could do is probably buy a kit and give it a go, that way then you could provide feedback to all of us on here Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Angarak Posted February 8, 2012 Share Posted February 8, 2012 Is this real carbon skin dave, and what soet of price say fro the fuse box cover, many thanks Just a FYI, as real CF is electrically conductive, you wouldnt really want it near anything electrical on the off chance it makes contact (i.e. battery/fuse covers). I cant see CF looking skins/dips having the same issues assuming they are not using materials that are electrically conductive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
