Yes I did. Its a long process but well worth it. I have an extra grill that I want to do for a spare but I ended up doing some fogs instead. I actually have them for sale right now because I decided I wont really need them.

LOL.. I never said the grill was. I will eventually make an extra grill one when I get some spare time. Probably when I get back from vaca.

I'm thinking of purchasing the 3M Dry Carbon wrap from this company - any recommendations on any other companies or brand of wrap?

Thought I was the only person that swapped out my lenses for the sti-r's. One of my favorite mods! Our projectors still suck, but atleast my cut off is sharp and IMO the color is better. Car looks great too btw!

The only vinyl carbon that I have ever mess with is the 3M Di-noc one. I wasn't as please as I thought I would be, but maybe its because I do real CF work so I'm bias. The cool part is that I can do the piece in a dry carbon look also with a satin clear.

Dope!! I honestly thought I was the only one also.

So I'm just curious in what other parts in our car would you guys like to see in carbon fiber. ???

I think if you could make the panel between the rear seats in the same color as our texallium you'd have a winner. Just can't pony up the 1k+ for the think design peice, and no one else makes one.
