did a search, made a couple of calls, can't find Folia Tec CF in sheets. Read it was hard to tell from the real thing. I'd like to wrap my TRD action pkg wing's center section for a reasonable cost... anyone know?

thanks

It really does look real, even up close. The only place I have ever seen it was at a car show. A vendor there had it, and it was expensive.

Not sure how well that will look, even if it does look like realy CF. The problem is, you'll need to stretch the vinyl to make it fit perfectly, warping the design. In any case, here it is:

And here is a better alternitive:

by reading that link, they talk about resin and sealant... i don;t think this is vinyl at all... if it's CF cloth, the whole resin thing would not be for me... but thanks for finding the link...

The first link is vinyl, and the second is like a real carbon fiber overlay. Not sure if the actual material in the second link is carbon fiber, though.

The real one doesn't look as real as the fake one.
