I received a sample of 3M carbon fiber wrap at work and was curious to use it on my car. My first use was under the rear emblem. I've also done the A/B pillars and the small strip on the rear window.
I would like to do the roof, but I am looking for feedback; tackle job myself (with help), or have a pro do it? Carbon fiber or stun finish black?
Thanks!
Looks good. If I still had my silver I would do that in a heartbeat. On a darker car I'm not sure it would stand out enough to worry about.
I'm not sure I would do the roof. That might be a bit much but then again, that's just my taste. The good news is that it could probably be taken off if needed.

Thank you! I am on the fence about the roof. There are lots of images on the web, so I am doing my due diligence before I go one way or the other. You hit the nail on the head; It's reversible, and won't leave any sign of it ever being done. I am also considering just doing the "channels" (sorry, I don't know what they are called) the run from the front to the rear of the roof on each side of the car.
This material is a great option, but I think the 'less is more' approach should be observed of it will look tacky. And if it's not perfect, it looks even worse!
Thank you! Here are some shots of the center caps and the door pillars, all in carbon fiber wrap. Well, the caps are from OZ. I think it all works together without being too much. I ultimately want a stealth presence, that looks complete without being too much 'boy racer'. I keep looking at the grill trying to find a way to make it unique, but still thinking about what to do. Carbon fiber wrap on the slats won't work. Maybe wrap the chrome surround?
Forgive the dirt. Busy week and a 4 hour road trip.
