Carbon Fiber Overlays
 
Has anyone thought about putting CF overlay on their cars? I was thinking of trying this out. I recently got this rock chip on my side fenders and the looks of it just bothers me. I was looking for alternative way to hide it or get rid of it. I saw this CF overlay for our cars or any cars actually.

According to them it's REAL CF... And they actually sell sheets of it. Has anyone tried them? Maybe give some pointers on how to use it too hehe...

that link is for bride seats

Stealth_Z 09-24-2009 05:27 PM

crap sorry... updated the OP

kdo2milger 09-24-2009 05:29 PM

so what are trying to put the carbon fiber sheets on? the whole fender or just certain parts...

Stealth_Z 09-24-2009 05:35 PM

I'm probably going to do the whole fender. Since I got dinged there. It should match up with the CF hood also. Rather than spending a fortune for new fender or PURE CF product. I kind a hate putting CF stuff outside my car (like side skirts and what not) because I had CF lip before and I actually broke them in half hitting something on the fwy.

kdo2milger 09-24-2009 05:37 PM

why not clear bra it instead...

Stealth_Z 09-24-2009 06:03 PM

I've thought about that... But looking to open my choices. I think this would be neat, no?

kdo2milger 09-24-2009 06:55 PM

might be too much carbon fiber, but its your z :tup:

Stealth_Z 09-25-2009 11:24 AM

Well.... I'm not really looking to cover the whole front fender. I'm actually talking about the side fender. (driver and passenger) ... I've seen some cars with CF fenders. Looks pretty neat.

kdo2milger 09-25-2009 11:25 AM

actual cf fenders or sheets like these over the fender

Stealth_Z 09-25-2009 06:58 PM

lol alright alright... how about the emblems for the car. CF emblems...

kdo2milger 09-25-2009 07:02 PM

theres a new member here suppose to be mocking up some z emblems to replace the nissan ones...

not sure what finishes hes doing although i think brushed metal will be one hopefully...

maybe ask him if he can do cf too...

Stealth_Z 09-29-2009 03:06 PM

Oh i see.. I wonder how those turns out

shabarivas 09-29-2009 04:03 PM

LOL CF overlays are like lambo doors and LED strip lights / Halos / Angel eyes... its just way too played out... and you will get a lot of hate on this site as we have more function > form folks than the other way around...

phelan 09-29-2009 04:12 PM

Now if we were talking CF replacements...

Stealth_Z 10-02-2009 11:01 AM

Well I plan to just do some small ones now... nothing more... maybe the emblem or not

hmmm...

Has anyone thought about it?

Sure, there's a whole section of the forum dedicated to internal and external modifications, with vendors (who apparently thought about the potential profit to be had by those who thought about doing it) announcing products all the time.
