Just picked up my Air Force air suspension today. I'm temped to take my car back out of storage and insure it just to install it and slap on the wheels but I'm still waiting on rubber anyways. I just want to have it ready to by spring.

I still have not got around to installing my air ride or my wheels yet as my baby is still in storage for the winter so I decided to take on a new little project.
I don't know if anyone here has heard of Hasepro Magical Carbon (Yes with a name like that its gotta be JDM LOL) Basically it a its a REAL Carbon sheet with a heavy duty adhesive attached to the back side. I saw these in the just recent Tokyo Auto Salon and was really impressed with the quality

It wasn't too long ago that I installed my JDM black wood interior, dont get me wrong I like it but I really wanted to step our of the shadows as everything was completely blacked out in my interior. After driving a few euro cars at my work and noticed how nice the silver carbon was so I decided to give this "Magical Carbon" a shot, and man am I happy with the results. I'm used to applying vinyl to previous projects but man this was really hard to mold and stretch and turns rock hard once cooled down. But all in all I'm happy with the outcome. I also picked up a silver carbon 01+ steering wheel which I'll be installing shortly. I'll make sUre to snap some pics
PS: I'll be posting up all my black wood interior parts for sale including the black wood steering wheel (NO AIRBAG!) once my new one is installed. PM me if you are interested

Those sheets of carbon don't come too cheap. at the booth in TAS everything was 20% off. The large one is H600mm x W480mm which is 13,440jpy ($167 USD) regular price and the medium one is H600mm x W240mm and that one was 7,329jpy ($91 USD) regular price . I scooped up both for 15,000jpy ($187 USD)
Here is their website

They have another one called "Magical Art Sheet" Which is much cheaper but its a vinyl much like the 3M one you see everywhere
