Carbon Fiber HOODS
Where can i order the best looking carbon fiber hood for my Supra....I have a couple questions bout them... Do they come with just one sheet or can you do multiple cars with one order of them... Also.. do u have to cut out the hood... isn't that really hard with such delicate material, and if you mess up, its trash???.. anyone whos ever used a decal like that, can u explain it to me... I know Walter has i think on that amazing integra!

Scale Motorsport one is one of the best.
If you are doing more than four cars, one sheet many not be enough. This kind of product is handy, so always keep more than you need. (that will save shipping if you order online) http://www.scalemotorsport.com Cut the sheeet in slightly bigger the size of the hood while backing paper is still on. Apply the decal and remove the air, using a cotton swab from center to the outer edge. Once the decal is near dry, cut the decal along the panel lines with a sharp hobby knife, then wet and remove the excess part. Use cotton swab again to get rid of the excess water along the edge, and you are done. I prefer light semi gloss clear coat over CF decal, but it's optional.

What I do is make a template out of paper by tracing the part outline on it first. This helps when aligning the weave of the CF decal pattern.

http://www.automotiveforums.com/vbul...&highlight=ITR I am currently looking for the other thread, so I will post it when I find it. Edit: opps, sorry, my bad, I think that is all the links. I thought I remembered a post where he asked if he should continue, but I can't find it. Either I am not looking hard enough, or it isn't there. I will have one last look but I doubt I will be able to find it.
