The Carbon fiber look
 

I was playing with some design ideas last night and tried some on my rx7. One was carbon fiber looking paint for the hood so i mixed some Testors silver gloss with Testors gloss black and i did two parts black one part silver and it not only lookes carbon fiberish but it looks kinda scale too. You may want less black and im sure it would work but it looks cool.:D

DKS sells carbon fibre stickers so you can get a real carbon fibre look! WWW.driftkingshop.com , under decals!

yea places sell stickers but he was talkin about scale size...on most of the stickers the carbon fiber look isn't scale size...on real carbon fiber hoods the pattern is really small...well on some of the stickers u see...it looks like a big checkerboard

No It actually looks to scale

I ordered a sheet of 1/24th scale Regular and Gold carbonfiber decals. It was the smallest i could find. That gold carbon fiber (silver is replaced with gold) should be interesting. I'll have to find a use for it. Maybe I'll make a pimpin carbon fiber hood on my prepainted body.

viper- sorry about what i said...i didn't see the link till now and saw that they were scale...but if u look around here u can see some cf decals that aren't scale

Reminds me of a metal flake Tony Stewart car they sold at Home Depot. The metal flakes were too big (they would have been perfect metal flakes for his real car)

i've got some carbon fibre matting and i have been thinking about making a carbonfibre body. i'm not sure how to mold it hough, any tips?
