These are my new cheeky bits of carbon mirror caps and fog lamp blanks



I also took delivery of 3 dead cows for the car today. That put a healthy dent in the wallet.

Webby.....where are they from and how will you mount them???? I like!!!!!!!

SaxoMuffin 12th March 2010 19:30

Fog blanks look good but they look like carbon vinyl?!?!

Wayne 12th March 2010 19:38

Look carbon vinyl to me and not as shiny as streamlines bits, they look abit dull, no offence or anything webby there not that bad made just not very shiny for my liking.

Who cares on what price streamline carbon charge for carbon products you get what you pay for at the end of the day and you get quality with streamline carbon, i'd rather carbon done perfectly and shiny compared to people who make it rubbish and dull, no offense but there is a few companys i know and the carbon fibre they make is shocking! carbon fibre is not cheap to start with so have to make a profit somewhere, all streamcarbon's stuff is hand made themselves and prepped and made properly, thats why it takes so long to get carbon bits off streamline as there made to order!

webby 12th March 2010 21:07

busted allready lol

i said cheeky for a reason it is infact a vinyl.
3m di noc. so not cheap nasty stuff its the same stuff danny's mirrors are done in.

streamline dont do a fog lamp blank and i wanted them to match the mirror caps. so i thought this stuff looks good and wanted to use it.

it has a satin look to it i personally like how they have come out and when the wallet is up to taking a hit for cf it will but its recovering from a 150sqft of premium grade 1 beluga leather lol

this is a pic of the di noc in the sun


Matt_e 12th March 2010 21:19

personally i think matt carbon looks better shiny carbon

Wayne 12th March 2010 21:41

It's only cause the carbon is lacquered why it is so shiny, ah right thought it was vinyl, looks good for vinyl though.

webby 12th March 2010 21:51

it doesnt look to bad and they have been wrapped really well so im happy with the outcome. the dream is though to have pockets as deep as your though wayne lol.

mickymoe 12th March 2010 22:05

very very nice indeed love this colour!

SaxoMuffin 12th March 2010 22:29

Aha thought so :p but as I've said it looks good for small bits but I wouldn't go ott with vinyl.. :y: Will look nice when on :)

webby 12th March 2010 22:41

webby 12th March 2010 22:59

as soon as i get money it gets spent on the car lol. there will no more after the retrim untill it gets painted in winter. then maybe i can enjoy the car instead of endlessly chasing improving it.

webby 26th March 2010 20:42

fitted the 'carbon' today and tbh i didnt like them at all not because its vinyl because i prefered the red. so they are going to be body colour again.

crap update i know but its going to be getting alot done over the next month so there will be plenty.

webby 27th March 2010 12:41
