Carbon fibre wrapped panels

After trialing on my own car and panels im confident enough now with the quality to offer this service to everybody.
What your looking at is the 3M Di-NOC carbon fibre wrap, a professional grade vinyl that out-performed my expectations in every way possible, the quality is really something to behold.
Not only does it feel like proper dry carbon, it reflects light and looks the same too.
Here is a few panels done on my GPR

All prices are dependant on how much wrap i use and how difficult/long it takes me. The kick plates will be 60 a set, while the a pillars will be about 40 a set, and the brake light cover will be about 30 (surprisingly more difficult to do than the others!)
This is assuming you will provide the panels yourself, i can provide a limited amount of panels for an extra cost of what i would usually sell them for.
Working time is usually one day, possibly two work load depending.

A mate came round today, in his BA falcon ute. Wanted his shifter panel and door spears done. An hour later and he left happy as a pig in sh*t.
Some more pics of my work

Take note that the panels stand out a lot more as they reflect light a lot better than the black stock panels, looks much more in sync with the rest. Panels used to all be silver, the passenger door spear was wrinkled and looked out of place. Now looks immaculate.

Great work mate! But I prefer the 3M Scotchprint 1080 vinyl over the DI-NOC, it is much more pliable and easier to apply. The weaves are a bit smaller and it feels a bit less textured to DI-NOC. It's also a bit more glossy than DI-NOC.

I prefer the Di-Noc tbh, the feel of the weave and the dry carbon look over the resin covered look. Each to their own though, i can do either if your paying :lol:

Was mainly talking about the installation, I like the look of both DI-NOC and Scotchprint, but the Schotchprint stretches into places that the DI-NOC cannot.

The Scotchprint does not look so much like a resin covered carbon, it's kind of in between.

I've yet to see a wrap that looks like real resin coated carbon.

Hope you don't mind me posting these photos here Taz, but this is to show what the Scotchprint looks like on my stereo surround.

Head unit button was all scratched up so I thought I would give it a try.
I have since then also done the ash tray lid and black metal plate around the cigarette lighter.

And I'm yet to see a post from you that has any relevance or purpose at all. If all your going to do is talk sh*t in my threads, then f**k off its not wanted.

Love it how its only when someone else posts up the same work they've done a compliment is given...
