Tried some Carbon Wrapping

[Coops Mk1]

well seeing as this seems to be all the rage at the mo, i figured i'd have a dabble and see how i went

not too bad for a first attempt i dont think and those little badges are flippin fiddly. i'm not massively happy with the matt finish and no idea how well the vinyl will hold up to exterior use but we'll see. my plan is to laquer the caps before they go on to seal them over and perhaps add a bit of a gloss to the finish as well.

sneaky peak of new wheels as well, not mint by any stretch, but should look tidy enough when i acquire some rubber

wheels

caps off

badges out

plenty of wrap

first one done

back on cap

and all done

fitted to wheel

:approve: like it! i gave up wrapping my front and back badges as it was too fiddly so fair play for wrapping those!

Annoying a fcuk trying to do the front/rear diamonds on a mk3! I've done the faces of mine, to hell with the sides/insides.

Look good mate, they should hold up well, I done my fuel cap and diamonds about 2 month ago, still on perfectly, and I live in Newcastle, where the weather changes constantly!

^ lol it is annoying so i just ended up spraying them!!! did wrap my roof in black though which has held very well considering it was done in april!

Looks bloody good to me. Good job IMO.

I was kinda hoping you had done the whole wheels, lol
