I don't think I've ever seen a CF wrap that looks this close to the real thing.

looks like one of these, i might be wrong

Wow that stuff looks great, I'd be interested in it as well!

It's 3M I believe. AccessEvo posted up a few times about and I'm almost positive I remember reading on one of their past posts that it's the new glossy Di-Noc.

They speak a little English, so you can try emailing them.

its not Glossy DiNoc

Glossy Dinoc does not look like it has a clear coat on top of it...

That does look pretty good actually.

However I'd still spring for the real stuff though

^Way too much work to real CF your roof though. I'd op for real CF everywhere except my roof.

Sidenote:
I was thinking of wrapping my interior with real CF. I helped a buddy do it and its not particularly hard, just time consuming and test your patience. Check out this awesome CF Fabric I wanna use:

Here you go! :tup:

I stand corrected.

From what I hear the G is a pain but that seems relatively easy

I have seen this wrap at RESTYLE IT in Toronto. Looks really hot.

How close would you say it resembles real CF side by side?

can we find out which viynl this is!! im sending my car to get done next monday and would really like to do my roof with this carbon!!

It's definitely 3M film, I just read the reply to the comments that Nakamoto from Access Evo wrote all the way at the bottom of the page.

you just made me make a mess in my pants... Always pulling out all the stops arent you CFElement.

You need to sponsor a G btw...

Oh hey! would you look at that! I have one!!! What a coincidence!!!

I just emailed Access directly. Lets see if they can read english and reply back with a manufactures name.

Any update on this? Let us know when you find out!!!:tup:

Nothing beats the real thing :)

Noooo... But the fake thing and $700 in my pocket is nice too

^ What he said. Id rather use this stuff to do some matching and have a few grand left over for real performance mods then to waste money on the "real thing". On the roof especially, youre just adding it over, so the real CF would actually add more weight, whithout any benefits.

Dont get me wrong CFE, your stuff looks amazing, but its wayyyyy too expensive.

I wouldnt say we are "WAYYYtoo expensive" Carbon fiber and Resin are themselves expensive materials, along with the amount of work it takes, we aren't simply applying a double sided sticker and calling it a day. Each piece takes hours to perfect from preparing, laying down material, sanding, reapplying resin, more sanding, more resin, more sanding, cleat coating, wet-sanding and buffing.....Its in no means to cost the same as cloth or leather that's for sure. Thank you for the compliment though :)

Lol, brother, you read that wrong, he is saying Carbon Fiber is expensive,
NOT
What you guys at CFE make

I have the utmost respect for those who do things the legit way when they have the means... It just ain't for me :tup:

Ah I see, Read it as CFE was expensive :) Wanted to justify the cost factor behind carbon fiber and the process.

Thanks for clearing it up :). On a side note, for a cheap alternative they do make a have gloss chemical agents you can apply to vinyl and plasti dip to enhance the weave in painted items/vinyls

LINK?!?!?!
(I know about the glossifier for plastidip, but I want ultra glossy fake as hell CF, LOL)

That's what I was referring to, Glossifier "couldnt think of the name" lol

pretty much this professional described everything in detail, I once tried to make carbon fiber parts for my g37 and only ended up with 200 dollars material in trashcan + epoxy drips on my garage floor. it is some labor intense stuff.

couldve been better if i have gone with infusion system

DE is right, I'm talking about cosmetic CF in general. Like I said I've seen pics of your work and it looks amazing, and I'd kill to have a bunch of red CF adorning my interior, but I just cant see myself spending thousands for looks. But that's just me!

We dont charge THOUSANDS lol Just saying. Door switch panels are usually around 100-200 shipped depending on the kind of carbon your seeking.

Back on topic ! :)

So there was a link in the description in youtube video.

DECALFX.com! CARBON2™ VINYL! Realistic Carbon Fiber Look! Low cost, high quality vinyl film overlay sheets! For hoods, custom interior dash trim moulding! 3M Di-Noc Dinoc wrap

It seems like they buy 3m or any other manufacturer CF film and overlay the glossifier or some sorts to make it shiny.




Textured pattern, NOT PRINTED! Don't be fooled by others.

Extremely HIGH GLOSS, SMOOTH FINISH!

Permanent acrylic pressure-sensitive adhesive.

Made from OEM certified automotive graphics vinyl.

Conforms to curved surfaces.

Stands up against water, dirt, grease, salt, snow, etc.

Long life with excellent UV durability.

Easy and fun to apply!


Any thoughts?

ehh.... I have a few OEM pieces of interior trim that the old owner allowed their dog to scratch up with its nails while trying to look out the window. So I am gonna go ahead and TRY to wrap in real CF. Of course it wont turn out like CFE, but hopefully itll be passable and not discourage me to try again to do it a bit better then next time :D

MMMMM this sounds good to me :stirthepot:

its 3m and its not cheap. looks close to the real thing and has a textured finish. wrapped the front lip and fangs and the rear valence. have dual stripes running from the hood back to the spoiler on a gun metal Z.

So who`s buying and applying this stuff? would like to do some interior pieces?

I wrapped my roof with it! looks SICK!

Pics

Where are you guys buying the material???

???

Pics please!

got my Z wrapped by a well known vehicle wrap company here in vegas. you could buy sheets online but its a handful to work with, especially on large sections. its very heat sensitive and could tear and stretch ruining the matrix pattern look of carbon fiber. some awesome wraps on you tube. will try to load pics.
