Nice work vinny. Keep it up, lookin good.

Side note do you use anything to spray on top of the vinal while smoothing it out? If so what do you use and where do you get it?

Thanx man, Naw..I didn't use any liquids- jus' a credit card and my fingers and in certain areas I wrap'd the card inside of a small sock to avoid scratching the surface.

Hey Vinny I heard you were the man with a certain cowl scoop im looking for? Im not sure which color i want now, yellow or regular black cf since im doing the wing and hatch piece in black cf it might throw off the theme

btw your car looks awesome. Sometime i get the same way when you have some time to kill what better use then modding your car.

I want a how-to for the battery wrap - you can never have too much carbon fiber! Did you have to remove the holder or just take out the battery and start wrapping.

Howsit Cat!
I removed the cover from the bay and re-connected the battery quickly so that I would not lose all of my settings/memory on the stereo and clock.
I submitted a thread on the wrap'n of my lic. plate frame, well if you can find that thread it's basically the same procedures. Always good to start with something small to familiarize yourself with it, if you're not already. It's easy and lot of fun too!!!!

Go for it!!!!!
It's not until you have the wrap in your hands do realize how many different parts that wud look awesome wrap'd up. Another plus is the workout yur brain gets while trying to figure out how yur cover a challenging area of whatever yur wrap'n up Tons of fun.......
