Carbon Fibre Bumper Insert + Other pics of my recent mods

[Jaffa182]

Bin looking around for ages for a company that do the insert in the back bumper of a 172/182 in carbon fibre. After no luck decided to make 1 myself by just covering the original with vinyl. I thorught it would look quite rough. But after a hour of playin with the vinyl getting to sit right these are the results

I also put the new badges on from the 197. The other pics are just showing off me new head unit and interior lights

How did you do it etc etc..

Minus 5 points tho because your exhaust is hanging lower on the right than it is on the left :rasp:

Loving the carbonage mate

 

[CHRISK172+]

Looks real good that carbon rear piece. Been toying with doin it myself but thought it might be arse so not done it. What carbon sheet did you use?? I've seen some real carbon adhesive backed sheet but not sure it would fold round the edge....

Love that carbon insert. I want carbon fibre mirror covers, do you reckon I could use this sort of adhesive on them or would it be too difficult do you think?
