carbon fiber wraps
Does anyone know where I can purchase a carbon fiber wrap which matches the factory carbon fiber look? I had a buddy of mine order a couple different wraps and all of them look different. I want to wrap part of the hood.
Thanks

The best looking carbon fiber vinyl I have ever seen is called Vvivid Tech Art Gloss Carbon Fiber. I have not used it personally, but everything I have read and seen online has been very positive. It is by far the best looking I have seen in pictures. Here is a thread with some good pictures and information.

5d carbon looks so close to the factory vinyl its hard to distinguish unless you are some sort of carbon fiber expert with a magnify glass, nit picking the smallest things. I have several interior pieces and outside pieces I wrapped in it and not a single person has questioned if its wrapped or real. The 5d is thick and more like a laminate and doesnt have the texture like alot of the cheaper wraps. It has multiple layers. Ebay has it for cheap so buy a small piece for a couple bucks as a sample and if you dont like it, dont use it. Just ebay search "5d Carbon wrap".

Here are some pictures of all the stuff I wrapped with 5d Carbon. I take this thing through the car wash, rain, sun, etc and it is still perfect. Waxes fine also. I realize some of you want the real thing and pay big money for it and I respect that. But for a roll that looks just fine to me for 20 bucks it frees up money to spend on other things I did to the car. Here are the pictures:
