I've installed myself many times the 3M DiNoc carbon fiber wrap in other cars.. great vinyl to work with but I couldn't find a size that could fit the 370z engine hood.

Have anyone Dinoc wrapped their hood? How much was needed? Im planning to do hood, roof, rear spoiler, door handles, A pillar, side mirrors and some interior parts.

you need to get a custom size as 3M's standard rolls are 4ft wide.

measure your hood (just take a tape measurer, careful not to scratch your paint!) and add 2" each side for the wrap around and some excess you can pull.

talk to www.carbonfibergear.com for your custom size.

The 3M scotchprint 1080 roll is 60" wide, and the hood measured exactly 59" wide and 56" long.

I wanted to go with DiNoc because of the grey CF look, but given the hood size scotchprint is my only option, it doesn't look bad, in fact it has a more realistic CF look than the DiNoc but it is darker and less textured.
