Brushed Steel 3M Fob Wrap

SgtGoldy · 08-23-2012, 07:19 PM

Thought I would give wrapping a try since I havent really done it. The smallest thing with easy curves was my key fob so why not lol

. It came out alright, and wasn't too hard. But since its not perfect I'm gonna give it another shot. Maybe in CF this time

Maybe this will spark some idea/designs for others to wrap their fobs in as well (if people havent already)

Wow that looks awesome! Great job! I tried wrapping a phone case in 3M CF before, but I sucked at it so I gave up.

I like it. I would try the brushed steel look again. Suites the infinity luxury brand better than carbonfiber IMO

I am actually about to re-wrap it in Brushed Steel because I liked it better. In my DIY I tried out CF and it looks good, but not Luxury good

I started mine in brushed blue metallic, thanks for the write up.
Wish I had a 2010+ fob though; I have a Nissan emblem instead of a "z"

Crappy lighting and crappy phone pics, but you get the idea.

I'll probably redo it again later, I'm not 100% happy with the top portion

SGT GOLDY and BOOST LEE you should post your picks on this 370z thread. Custom Key/Key Chains I seen a lot of people look at it but have not posted anything in it and these are great ideas.
