Carbon fibre boot strip?

[justin32]

Ive got a spare boot strip that i got from the scrappy and was going to spray is black but its seems alot of hassel and im rubbish with a spray can.

sooooooooooo

I was thinking about getting it carbon wrapped instead,whats your thoughts and what is it likely to cost if i had it done professionaly?

Cheers

an easy DIY get a piece of ebay,just make sure its long enough.Very simple to do and before long you will get the bug and do the whole car.I started on the boot strip and have now done all the window chrome,window pillars and even my snowflake centre caps.

Awlrite Justin Im eventually goin to de-chrome the V grill col.code black so Im probably goin to carbon fibre the boot strip also,did my pillars/mirror bracket covers with CF vinyl and really chuffed with results,like Frigosolver says u will get the bug

Was the first thing i wrapped just take your time and the button hole is a bit tricky

To be honest the trickiest part for me was removing the strip.

Actually carbon wrapping it was a doddle.

Ive had a go at doing interior parts years ago on a old corsa i had but i made a right pigs ear of it and gave up.....i did buy cheap carbon wrap though and it just peeled off after a few weeks

Anybody got some links to some decent stuff i can buy,something that will last and be up tot he job of getting wet

Cheers

Should be able to get it off ebay mate.

Search for 3M di-noc carbon. Got mine off there and had no problems what so ever. A couple of years of good old British weather and it's still stuck fast.
