Styling Real carbon fibre
Seems a tad expensive for a bit of blong.
I guess if he has the money he can afford the real carbon, but would you get the same sort of finish with film? wont it peal off over time?
Its used extensivly on fishing tackle and thats a wet water sport and is very hard wearing..a coat of sealant and varnish does wonders..
You mean my Browning Black Magic II is only coated in sticky back plastic?
That pole was constructed with high modulus graphite..and had put in joints IIRC wasnt one of browning best..
many of the seat boxes though that look as though they are corbon fibre are actually covered plastic..:Offtopic:
thats good to know, so the film is good too then
just think looks **** hot
I'll look forward to seeing the Panda about Easton and Norwich weating it's new carbon fibre soon then
:yum:Jon.
Iv used film in the past and next to real stuff looks pretty rubbish, and would be bit of bodge trying to strech that round ya mirrors lol
Its not unless you rubbishly apply it
With mirrors it a lot better to apply a "carbon finish" though, not film. Its done by applying several layers of special finish using pattern applicators and then covering with laquer - it looks 100% like real thing.
Id prob achieve the first bit lol
Got and fitted my carbon fiber mirror covers just poped off old one and siliconed new ones on.

I like it mate
Look good
The old mirror covers, you say they just 'pop off', no hidden screws or fasteners?
Want to take mine off to have sprayed matt silver.

No there just clips and lil bit of silicone, i just adjusted mirror all way down n to one side so i could see in behind the mirror just got to flick a black plastic springy bit out of way and push the clip have to push hardish as the silicone holds it as well.
