drift_bear Posted June 16, 2012 Share Posted June 16, 2012 Im looking at 3D carbon wrap on ebay and seen some thats 2m x 1.2m will that be enough to cover the roof and how good is it in general? Can it be laquerd or would that ruin it? Im considering going for a half carbon look (bonnet, roof, boot and TRD) and i'm considering this option.

d-_-b Posted June 16, 2012 Share Posted June 16, 2012 Not size related, but thought it might be relevant to your query, If its the 3M DiNoc stuff then (unless its properties have been changed recently) when you try and laquer it, it just looks gloss black. Dont know why, did some sample tests on some i had and coudlnt see the weave at all, just looked like a gloss black peice of viynl. When we peeled the peice of the board we were using, you could peel the laquer off, and it went back to looking like normal 3m carbon viynl... very weird Other manufacturers may be different though, just thought id add in my experience with the 3M stuff from a while back : ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dnk Posted June 16, 2012 Share Posted June 16, 2012 The trouble with the supra roof is it has no defined edge so you would have an obvious edge on the carbon where it runs into the rear quarter panel and the A posts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drift_bear Posted June 16, 2012 Author Share Posted June 16, 2012 Yeah i've been looking up and reading about it and it seems to much of a PITA, So im just going to go with my original ideal and change a few bits and go for real carbon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
listy Posted June 16, 2012 Share Posted June 16, 2012 I thought about this too, but decided that at the back it would be too obvious that its a wrap. I was going to go whole hog and do the a-posts as well. Decided against it in the end. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
