Carbon wrap on silver ix
Did this today, didnt turn out to bad. i was debating on if i should paint it black with a clear coat. But if i ever wanted to resell the car it might not go over so well. so i decided on this carbon wrap. from 3m.

Yeah you'd have to paint it, because I'm sure wrapping that would be a total beotch, and would probably have seams.

Paint the VG!

But I'm a fan of painted roofs, painted the roof gloss black on my orange SRT, and doing the same to my Evo.

I love it. I was seriously considering this. I just might pull the trigger now after seeing how nice this looks. BTW what are you dropped on/suspension setup? Looks great

Love it! I would like to do that to my trunk. Beats spending $400+ on a real carbon fiber trunk.
