Re: where to get carbon fibre decals

There are a few websites that have them here are few.

*Hobby Search*
http://www.1999.co.jp/eng/plamo/inde...no=&Typ1_c=102

*HLJ* (Not sure if they carry it)
http://www.hlj.com/

*Scale Auto Style*
http://www.scaleautostyle.com/main.php

Hobby search also has allot of model kits that you cant find in other places i like this site allot better than HLJ in my opinion so this would be your best place to find anything you want.

Where would you get the carbon fiberr sheet that would be scaled down to size so that it looks real? Most sheets I have seen, of course I work in aftermarket parts sales, have been for the real deal and way to big for models. Let us know where to go!

Re: where to get carbon fibre decals

I guess you could make a carbon fiber hood and put CF decals on it... Although that kinda defies the purpose of the real carbon fiber hood
