350ash Posted April 14, 2010 Share Posted April 14, 2010 Since there's a few people saying it's not their cup of tea I thought I'd better even it out a bit - I really like it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IanS16 Posted April 14, 2010 Share Posted April 14, 2010 As said a few pages back i'm still not 100% sure if I like it and will be happy with it. Everyone that has seen it in the flesh says it looks superb, and people have even been stopping in the street taking pics! Not interested in bodykits etc but reckon a nice set of wheels and slammed it would look better. Perhaps 30mm spacers on the rear and 25mm at the front with a set of coilovers of eibach springs will help. Still a big part of me is thinking to rip it off and go white with carbon roof! Or maybe even a deep glossy orange and black combo! Would be far far cheaper to do! What ya reckon?! malibu-stacey - its the 3M DiNoc stuff i'm using. Got loads left on the roll if anyone is interested in buying any. Chris I think white and carbon looks great! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rtbiscuit Posted April 14, 2010 Share Posted April 14, 2010 sterling job i think your right with wheel spacers would help and lowered suspension. tint the rear out and jobs a goodun. can understand your reluctance to kit up. and then late ron upgrade the rims and sell on the spacers. people always wont them so they sell easily Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evest Posted April 14, 2010 Share Posted April 14, 2010 Love it! Looks like a Zed ninja! Why not take the Nissan burger off the front and whack a batman badge on it! Looks like something he would drive! Top job - definitely a head turner. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Been quoted $300 for a pair of 30mm's and a pair of 25mm's! Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cragus Posted April 14, 2010 Share Posted April 14, 2010 I am impressed that you have did that as a DIY Great job! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bhavin85 Posted April 14, 2010 Share Posted April 14, 2010 Wow that does look nice...some good work there esp as it was all DIY! Carbon Vinyl isn't really my thing but slammed with a nice set of wheels that would look superb! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BulletMagnet Posted April 14, 2010 Share Posted April 14, 2010 Love it! Looks like a Zed ninja! Haha, yeah, replace the rear spoiler with a ninja sword, hehe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cfoster Posted April 19, 2010 Author Share Posted April 19, 2010 Well 99% done and i'm stopping there!! Just the one mirror left but to be honest its not doing it for me so once i've had some pro pics done for my website and advertising it'll be all coming off!!! Seems a waste of money I know but its been good practice and a very good learning curve. Will be keeping the roof on and the lower front bumper middle bit but thats it!! Loads of pics here I took at the weekend! Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

350ash Posted April 19, 2010 Share Posted April 19, 2010 It looks really good . Aren't you tempted to leave it on for a while, or at least until wales so that everyone can see it in person? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sketch Posted April 19, 2010 Share Posted April 19, 2010 bit lower and some spacers and that thing is perfect. i think its turned out really well especially if its your first full wrap Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cragus Posted April 19, 2010 Share Posted April 19, 2010 I like it - certainly different! Would like to see how it deals with stone chips a fair bit of milage! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

V88 REG Posted April 19, 2010 Share Posted April 19, 2010 not for me im affraid, it suits certain cars........ good job though looks a very good finish . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pimm Posted April 19, 2010 Share Posted April 19, 2010 Seen alot of cars with a carbon wrap and none of them look very good imo. I cannot express, fairplay though for doing all that yourself. How many hours has this taken ? I think just the roof and mirrors would look good left on like you have already mentioned Good job. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cfoster Posted April 20, 2010 Author Share Posted April 20, 2010 I was going to leave it on until Le Mans in June as last time I went (in my DC5) my front bumper got littered with stone chips sitting on the backend of me mates rarri!! Will be coming off next weekend though for sure! Sketch - defo right mate, coilovers are next on the list and decided to buy new wheels rather than spacers.

goatboy Posted April 25, 2010 Share Posted April 25, 2010 What did you do to my car!!! Only joking mate, awesome job. Shame you don't like it though... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chilli Red Posted April 25, 2010 Share Posted April 25, 2010 You must have the patience of a saint. That looks like a really quality piece of work Chris Would love to see it for real so hopefully you won't take it off before we see it in Wales.
