  • Carbon Fiber Sail Panels

    Well about a month ago I bought a sheet of Real Carbon fiber with 3M adhesive stick on the back. So on Sunday I made myself a set of Sail Panel Overlays with the carbon fiber. I like the looks over the stock black or the vinyl carbon fiber look alike decals.

    I'm on my 2nd set on my car. The first set didn't have enough epoxy over them and yellowed and cracked. I found someone else selling them that were better and had more epoxy and look a million time better. Not sure what I'm going to do on the V6 yet.

        Well i guess I'll see what happens with this stuff. I have plenty of material left if i need to make another set.

                    Thanks guys... I saw the Fake Carbon Fiber and was not impressed at all that is when i started my ebay quest for a Carbon Fiber sheet. Looks beautiful in the sunlight.

                        Ditto. I'd pay for the material and labor...duh.
                        The Chevy Camaro was built with a single purpose in mind which it executes flawlessly...Going very very fast in a straight line until your hair catches on fire.

                          Taking the cost of the material and dividing it up by how many i could make from a sheet. It would cost about $15 per set.

                          If i jump on it tonight i could probably have a few sets done by the time of the Meet 'n' Greet. As a note, I have just installed these on my car so i am unsure how they will ware in comparison to the ones that Wade originally purchased from someone else.
