Carbon wrap roof on the Skyline

[SkylineV35]

After looking at countless options i decided to go for a carbon 3d Vinyl, at first i was worried how it would look on the Lakeshore slate grey paint but i think i just got a way with it

Anyways heres some pics.. still thinking of what to do with the wheels cause it really hard to match the paintwork and dont want to look too racer!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Thanks to everyone for the advice on wrapping!

Looks good garage do it or did you tackle it?

[SkylineV35]

I let some tinting guys tackle it it lol they did it in an hour and let me watch so i think if i ever need to wrap stuff i think i know how! Its almost the same as tinting but more forgiving..tinting is really stressful if you do it alone haha!

[ddcboyle]

Try doing a rear bumper... then youll wish u were just tinting a window haha. Looks good though

I can't help but think gloss black wouldve looked better with that colour and dark tints but il wait til I see it in the flesh

I brought it forward into the sunlight for a shiney shot lol

 

Yeah i was thinking gloss black and darkening the tints to get that panoramic roof style, but end of the day im going to have her sprayed matte white or super super glossy black the vinyl was a compromise until i save up the pennies! Hows your skyline doing? iv missed out in all the meets as im down south now =(

I think my worst Park and Abandon was coming home late one night and the street was packed full of cars and some idiot took up two spaces, so i reversed it straight in with the back end on pavement and front pointing out from in between something like this:-

 

- - l - -

 

- =neighbours cars

 

l =My car
