Carbon Fibre

Does anyone here know how to make your hood look like carbon fibre? And if you have pics that would be nice.

Thx

on way i figured out, is to use metallic black paint...looks nice..
although u cant see a real pattern the speckles give off a nice carbon look...
to go cheap, use a permanent marker

go to a camera supply store. they sell "gaffers tape" it is kinda like duct tape but it is black and more cloth like and fairly thin yet strong. it is kinda expensive. 15$ a roll but it works well for everything.

try using black enamel paint.. let it dry until it is like.. if you press on it, it will have your fingerprint on it.. that dry hehe
when it is that dry, press some nylon on it and let the paint finish drying. then put gloss on it. it will have the fiber texture yet it is smooth! iono i just thought up of this. if you use cloth, some fiber might get in the paint
