Best carbon fiber?

[LS1Aaron]

I was curious what you guys favorite brand of cf decal is?I need something for use on hoods and dont really like the look of SMS for this.Any suggestions,and any good shops to order some sheets from?

My favorite is SMS.

Studio27 is nice, but I don't think it's the best.

Usually I recommend Scaleracecars.com but I think the owner has fallen off the face of the earth?

I have used SMS a lot in the past ,but for F1 cars and such.In this case Im wanting something that will look good for tuner cars,like on hoods.

SMS's Hi-def decals look just beautiful. They are practically black until you see them in just the right light, a lot like 1:1 CF used in tuner applications. There was a full CF Enzo that came through here that was with the Hi-def decals, and it looked incredible under clear! I think this will be what you're looking for, they're a definate improvement over SMS's old style of decals with their copious weave. I am going to use some on a tuner car this week, and will let you know how they really look, and confirm my conjecture.

Thanks for the link.To me the studio 27 and Tamiya have the nicest weave,they appear to have depth, if that makes sense?Perhaps the new SMS will indeed look convincing.

Another vote for SMS or Modelers.
