Help... need pic of of CF overlay on stock rear diffuser/valence

FromG2Z · 03-10-2011, 07:02 PM

Hi all.... been searching for a while now, and I can't seem to find a good pic of a carbon fiber or flat black overlay on the stock OEM rear diffuser. I know I saw it here once before, but can't remember what thread it was on

been looking but no luck.

I specifically am looking for an overlay on a Pearl White... I am thinking about getting a CF overlay or flat black overlay, but can't decide which of the two... or just to make sure it looks good with white, in general.

I would appreciate a few photos please...

thanks.

Check with tongman. He's done his with di noc.

There you go buddy.

tong. can you please tell me where you got your overlay from? Mine is flat black right now and I been thinking about doing CF. but can't find a good place to buy the overlays

im pretty sure he got his from: Carbon Fiber Film | Dedicated To Selling 3M Carbon Fiber DI-NOC Vinyl

I bought a 12x48 sheet for my b-pillars. I still have enough to do some interior trim pieces or maybe black out my fangs.

Stuff is cheap and pretty easy to use.

Yep get it from there ^^^. I got a sheet of 48x48.

CF would like good on PW. Both fangs, b pillars and rear valance (diffuser).
Contact BlueBatMobile, he has pre-cut for those sections. I'm not sure if he has CF but definitely the right person if your not up to doing custom cut yourself.

thank you for the pictures guys.... With the overlay of vinyl, with it being white and the overlay black or CF, I am worried about the small surface area right by the rear fog light that is also white. So with the overlay, not sure how well it will "cover" that area.... I am worried it will look cheap, if that valence is all black/CF, but there's a little white peeking out by the rear fog light. You know what I mean? In Tong's picture, it's there, but not as obvious since it's blue. But in white, it will stick out.

Lastly, if is indeed wrapped in there nicely covering that all up, how well will it hold up before it starts peeling because of such a small area????

I might be better off painting

Sharpee that area!!! Just kidding. But seriously, if you are that anal about how things look, I would buy a big CF overlay from Di Noc and you can install it yourself the way you like it. With a big wrap, you can even cover that spot that your so worried about. Paint is always better - make sure get a professional one even though some may say you can do it yourself.

Sorry for double posting, I will be having my fangs, roof and rear valence vinyl'd with matte black next month. I can post pics too if you can wait.

Looks good, Tongman. Any pics of closer up to the overlay>?
