Noz Posted August 7, 2013 Share Posted August 7, 2013 (edited) Seen different ones and I think the carbon wrap looks nice. Has anyone ever carbon weave the lenses? I'm unsure if to carbon wrap them or not. Edited August 7, 2013 by Noz (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think gloss or satin black would look lovely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
safcdixon Posted August 7, 2013 Share Posted August 7, 2013 As above gloss black, theres far to much fake carbon about these days Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaveR Posted August 7, 2013 Share Posted August 7, 2013 That Supra is not wide enough frankly. My thoughts exactly...! Gloss black in your case I reckon, matey. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

supra_aero Posted August 7, 2013 Share Posted August 7, 2013 Mines got carbon. Looks awesome, tho looks even better with c-west light covers over the rear LEDS - that is the ultimate and rarest combo. Think heckler and i are the only ones in the uk with that combination.

Think heckler and i are the only ones in the uk with that combination. I've got c west covers, but decided not to fit them as I like the carbon that's inside, and it's real carbon not just a wrap Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skippyboyo1 Posted August 7, 2013 Share Posted August 7, 2013 As above gloss black, theres far to much fake carbon about these days I couldn't agree more, I'm removing my carbon "wrapped" dash for that exact reason, if its no real don't bother IMO. Dipping, wrapping etc is all getting old. It's like having a blow up doll when all people will think is why has he not got the real thing? That is all Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noz Posted August 7, 2013 Author Share Posted August 7, 2013 Glass black, isn't that changing the colour of the OEM insert then as well? They aren't for my car. It's just a one off set I was going to make to say it was something I'd done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mellonman Posted August 7, 2013 Share Posted August 7, 2013 sorry just re read your first post you want to carbon wrap the lenses? i would think that would look gash very cheap and tacky Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mplavery Posted August 7, 2013 Share Posted August 7, 2013 A company called Toxic tails do them to but it's a solid ring on the lights .. Look great but they do charge allot IMO I want a set of led carbon wrapped next for my next mod ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noz Posted August 7, 2013 Author Share Posted August 7, 2013 I can't spray them the same colour as I won't know what car they are going on. These are purely to build and sell. Its a single set. Which is why I considered carbon weave. A lengthy process but possibly worth the effort. I only want to wrap the inserts, or not at all. I think the stock colour goes well with most colours so I'd probably either wrap them or leave them. Gloss black might be too much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
