Gloss CF Vinyl

VViViD8 Gloss tech art carbon fiber Vynil.

http://www.ebay.com/itm/VViViD8-Glos...f09dd2&vxp=mtr

Ever since the release of the F8x I have lusted over their CF trim and have wanted a similar look without the hefty price tag. I have used di-noc on previous cars I have owned but it lacks the glossy look of real CF. Searching through ways to add some gloss to di-noc I stumbled on this vinyl and I must say I am impressed with the look and is by far the closest to real CF I have seen from a vinyl. It is fairly easy to use and has a clear protective film over the CF I recommend removing once you are applying for more flexibility. I have only done the center piece I will post pictures as I do the other trim pieces. For those planning to wrap over the aluminum hexagon trim like I did you will be able to see it come through slightly which is the only thing that I was not very happy with.

Wow, this looks amazing real and adds the little shine whats the standard CF wrap from DiNoc misses. How about finger tips and -prints on the surface? Arent you not wiping your prints steady out, after touching the Idrive & Co?

Do you know if this stuff can be polished to give it a more mirror-like finish? Also, is that 1x5ft enough for all your interior pieces?
