I know some of you are really anti FF.com so you may not see this there, just thought id get opinions here.

So one of the locals Scott(InfraRedSVTF) has a very beautiful 2010 focus and the main issue with the interior was the crappy silver. So we discussed things and came up with a solution for him.
All the work was done by me, hes coming to pick it all up tomorrow and install it.
Enjoy

I have to say this is the bast looking carbon fiber vinyl ive seen and it puts the 3m stuff to shame. Well worth the money and time spent.

I'm usually not a fan of carbon fiber, but that looks nice. Is it Oracal?

thanks steve :)

yes it is oracal, contemplated the 3m but they dont have a "gloss" for carbon they only have their dry carbon, talked to my supplier and they suggested oracals and man is that good to work with. its the first ive ever wrapped anything and it was a good learning experience. I already have a few people who want more stuff done, so i guess it was a positive experience. :)

im not a huge CF on the interior fan either, but i think its not over done for the 2010 and the one in my car was just to see lol, it may come back out right away.

How would this stuff hold up to underhood heat? A cf valve cover would be cool.

I know at least one person that used carbon vinyl wrap on his SVT spark plug cover and it held up pretty well.
