i initially decided on carbon fibre and black for my car, but skinning and wrapping will prove too expensive i think, and hard !

so i was thinking i will just spraypaint instead of skin. but obviously there is no carbon fibre spray!

so what is the closest color to carbon fibre? i want to keep a dark look to my car so no loud colors like....green HAHA.

i thought anthracite grey, but i think thats too much like black.

I think you need like a pearl black but hey what do I know anything black is good by me lol

Where's my nigerian convict friend..........Scottieeee!!!

hahaha, pearl black ? will that just be a shiny black ?

Peal finishes have metal flake in the paint they are then topped with a clear coat so yes nice and shinney..I think your probably looking at satin black..

I LIKE SHINNEY..lol

click the link YouTube - Carbon Fiber Paint Effect (dirtdesignsgraphic.com)

looks very cool

it does look good, you've shown quite a few carbon fibre things in the last few days scottie but in our crappy hands dont think they would look as good

I am able to make a unique run line with a spray gun... One of a kind. Most call it shit... I call it... Well shit too lol!

laughing my a$$ off, if you make a "unique" run line you can let it dry, met sand it back and dust paint over it, and it's schweet!

Haha, well one of the worst things about being a panel beater is nobody can see the hard work you put in when its painted over... So the unique line leaves a lasting impression

i got the passenger side of my stilo painted and i sent it to the best man i knew at the time, cost me £1000 with a brand new door and whole side painted.
he left a "unique line" at the bottom corner of my sill took me about 10months to find it but i found it. lol
i just sanded it back a little and re laquered it. schweet now
