Default Carbon Fiber roof Wrap

Just got done and are pics. they do not do it justice. you really have to see it in person in the sun. I am very happy with it, it turned out great.

I think it is similar to the neffy I know it is a 3M vinyl, but it has the feel and texture to it, it also is made for indoor our outdoor, it withstands heat and water.

I dont know how I feel about this to be honest. I mean it looks cool but I think it would be better if it had gloss.

Is it possible to put a clear vinyl on top lmao?

If it is the neffy type cloth wrap, I suggest strongly NOT to clear it. Looks horrible.

EDIT::

New pics look good.

I was not sure if I was going to do paint, or black, but then I found this and it matches up with my other CF stuff. I plan on wrapping my silver CF pieces to match. I figured if I didn't like it I can pull it off. The stuff is pretty easy to work with, you just have to make sure you put down the 3M primer on the trouble spots. When installing we were able to pull it off and on again to get out the wrinkles and bubbles.

Looks good but I agree, gloss would look badass!
