Hey guys,

I just bought a new roll, so sheets of the 3M CF vinyl are now available if anyone is interested in wrapping it themselves.

1.2m x 1m = $130+postage (probably be $5-10 for express) OR pick up. Can also do smaller quantity.

On Carbonfibregear.com, they sell 1m for $112USD + $38.20 postage = $150.20USD = $164AUD.

That roof looks great! But I think you've taken "wrap a whole car" a lil too seriously :)

Haha, that's not my car :)

The guy wanted his roof wrapped so I thought I'd give it a go and it turned out awesome :)

Ive always wanted to do this to my car!may i ask how much vinyl it took to cover the car and also

was it one whole piece? youve inspired me to attempt this on my own car :(

On the Lexus, i used just one piece, so no joints at all.

A sheet of 1.2m x 1.7m.

If you need a sheet of vinyl, I can post one down to you ;)

Did a Lexus IS250F's roof last night, took 6.5 hours xD

I'd figure some who can afford a IS250F, can afford to get a real Carbon Fibre roof...

Yeah, I don't know why he went with vinyl, maybe it's because vinyl is removeable? Lol

But the 3m vinyl looks pretty good on a $130,000 car xD

And as for you Jamie.... I know you want some of this in your car too :cool:

Hey man can I get a price on some carbon to do the B pillars, the black bit at the bottom of the Altia front bar, A/C vents, A/C controls and the tripple guage holder in an R34 GTT.

Oh and jrm referred me to you.

I'm in Sydney.

I've pointed to the bit I'm talking about.

Thanks,

Dave.

A few people has asked me about the black plastic on the R34 factory rear bar, so I've spent a couple of hours trying it out on my bar.

It took a little over 2 hours but pitty the sky was too dark to take some photos of the finish product, so here's what I've got, I'll get some better photos tomorrow :P

Cheers dude :P

As for your parts, the final day in the sun went very well, didn't have to touch it up at all. So once I see the dough, they will be on their way :P

    • Ah! I actually managed to snag a lightly used set.... that aren't so suitable for me right now. They don't work on a GTT without some cutting or creative heat moulding. I thought about reselling them myself cause I didn't want to murder them, but it looks like I'm probably going to attempt to murder them/melt them because I may as well. @GTSBoy @PranK can somebody close this thread?
    • Hey mate,  I have a set, one is slightly damaged but wont be noticable once installed.  Shoot me a message if your still after them 
    • I couldn't wait But, the black constant tension hose clamps were too thick and there wasn't enough clearance at the T/B and I couldn't get it to seat properly, so I had use a silver one there I also added some 3" silicone over the alloy bit that goes through to hole on the radiator support as it looked like it was sitting on the edge of the hole in the radiator support, I never noticed a rattle or anything, but there was a witness mark It is basicly done, and I can live with the silver hose clamp at the T/B, I will get a black clamp for the head vent though where it is attached to the bulkhead fitting  It never stops...LOL, only issue now with the shock tower brace is it slightly touches the under bonnet liner now, if I leave it it will either wear some paint off the brace where it touches, or damage the liner, so I removed the liner to see what I have to work with, with the liner removed I have about 20mm of clearance, but sadly the middle part of the underside of the bonnet is only dusted with paint and looks crap, so I cannot have that, but.... as I have a roll of Carbuilders premium under bonnet insulation in the garage laying around that is only 5.5mm thick (we were going to use it on the boys Patrol, but he crashed the front of it a few months and it was written off, hence why he now drives my old Honda Accord Euro), I'll use the OEM liner as a template and get the Carbuilders stuff fitted up to cover that dusted paint up
    • You have a knack for photography my friend. It makes the 86 look like a complete bucket. The 34 went with you to Europe and back. It's special. (we all feel the same about our 'shitboxes' that every bystander seems to absolutely love)
