Does anyone know where I can purchase a carbon fiber wrap which matches the factory carbon fiber look? I had a buddy of mine order a couple different wraps and all of them look different. I want to wrap part of the hood.
I've been looking for this for a while but the only ones that come close I've been told are not great quality and will look bad. Supposedly they are thicker materials that don't bend/curve well.

I had my body shop airbrush a cf look cuz all the vinyl on the market isn't close
The best looking carbon fiber vinyl I have ever seen is called Vvivid Tech Art Gloss Carbon Fiber. I have not used it personally, but everything I have read and seen online has been very positive. It is by far the best looking I have seen in pictures. Here is a thread with some good pictures and information.
5d carbon looks so close to the factory vinyl its hard to distinguish unless you are some sort of carbon fiber expert with a magnify glass, nit picking the smallest things. I have several interior pieces and outside pieces I wrapped in it and not a single person has questioned if its wrapped or real. The 5d is thick and more like a laminate and doesnt have the texture like alot of the cheaper wraps. It has multiple layers. Ebay has it for cheap so buy a small piece for a couple bucks as a sample and if you dont like it, dont use it. Just ebay search "5d Carbon wrap".

That looks really good! If you could please post some pictures of the items you wrapped on the exterior of the car from varying distances and light. Thanks for the help!
Here are some pictures of all the stuff I wrapped with 5d Carbon. I take this thing through the car wash, rain, sun, etc and it is still perfect. Waxes fine also. I realize some of you want the real thing and pay big money for it and I respect that. But for a roll that looks just fine to me for 20 bucks it frees up money to spend on other things I did to the car. Here are the pictures:
