Carbon Grill surround - opinions please

Featured Replies

I got the idea from a gr666 on here.

yes indeedy. I had the first di-noc carbon grilled black furby on here I think.

Had to do something different with the badge too to complete the look.

By the way Duncan, we're all fair and square now cos I counter-nicked your idea to paint the V badge black. :rofl::rofl::rofl:

I also fly-eyed the front fogs. Here's a pic of mine taken last weekend :thumbup:post-38897-12718355258465_thumb.jpg

Great job Jon....and I agree the black engine badge completes the look perfectly! :thumbup:

Althought not to my taste - think it's all the cheap carbon that's been flying about. Really put me off the stuff - Great finish on it! emoticon-0148-yes.gif Looks much better with the black badge too!

Noticed you've removed your front fogs. Do you have any close up pics of the bumper without the fogs mate?

Nope, they're still in there. Just tinted with fly eyes kit.

No VRSJON mate

Not to my taste, think the grill looks better painted in black, but the finsh to top notch and much better than the crome, but I do like the interior bits.

Looks good mate! just got my interior vents done too :thumbup:

I have placed a small sheet of carbon fiber (not vinyl) here so that the electric steering pump and ancillaries do not get wet !! (sorry for blurry image)

The mesh was put here to prevent damage to the intercooler while increasing flow

2.0 petrol combi yeah :)

i have my mirrors done with this stuff it is fantastic people actually think its real carbon it has texture to it its mint, i was going to do my bonnet and roof but funds are on a all time low lol damn recesion .........or thats right it was just gordon brown shafting me again :giggle:

When you get the funds Id def recommend the roof, not sure if bonnet would be to much though. I fitted mine in Oct last year and it still looks as good as the day I fitted it,

Unlikely, cos when you put the hairdryer on it to heat it up during fitting it shrinks ever so slightly , so once its on..... ITS ON !!!...

You can pick at it and remove it this way though if you get bored of it, but heat will not make it bubble, its would just make it hug tighter. :thumbup:
