Carbon Fiber vinyl for grill surround
Hey everyone,
This is my first post, and I'm fairly new here, so I apologize if there is another thread related to this.
I'm looking to add CF vinyl onto the chrome grill surround, and was hoping to get some feedback from those that have had experience with this.
Where can I find reliable CF vinyl that looks good? Is the vinyl difficult to apply? Just yesterday, I've applied yellow fog films and turned out alright. Is the CF vinyl the same concept?
Pictures of your CF grill surround would be even better ;]
Thanks!

The best quality I know of for the vinyl is 3m.
Here is a link from ebay, these are the ones I buy.... good price and its 3M... http://www.ebay.com/itm/110914369764...84.m1497.l2649
Applying it is relatively easy, just a bit time consuming if you want it to be perfect. You will need an x-acto knife to help you out detail it properly...

Thanks guys.
I've read about the 3M tape but don't really know much about it. I think I'll be trying those vinyls from the link you gave. Do I just use the wet method and spray on some dish wash solution like other vinyls?
