I looked into that. I like the look of the carbon fiber. But the dude at our local shop said, and I quote "It cant be applied to curved surfaces" I was like WTH that is all I see them applying it to on Utube or the internet. I was asking for a quote on the hood insert. Which is relatively flat. I have seen a ton of vids applying this on mirrors motorcycles ect. Apparently its just too complicated for Keokuk Iowa.

I do like the idea though.

The CF is just a version of vinyl wrap and it can be wrapped around curved surfaces. If you want the CF, I would just buy a sheet of vinyl and wrap the insert yourself, it's not terribly difficult.

I know, right .

As to doing it myself. I just keep having visions of trying to apply the screen protector for my phone and getting the bubbles out while aligning it correctly. Apparently I have some type of genetic mental defect that precludes me from completing this task. I dont know who I am kidding. I couldn't properly wrap a present if my life depended on it.

My Wheel store hooked me up with a full set of the black nuts (that sounds kinda bad) for 32 bucks. They are going to call me in to rotate my tires and change out the lugs when they arrive.

ROFL - I know what you mean.

Actually, the bubbles are less of a problem than you think. Since the CF is opaque, you don't see them.

I got to (had to) apply new decals on one of my SeaDoos a few years back. They were relatively large vinyl like the CF sheet you're considering. A few knicks with a razor blade on the larger bubbles and leave it out in the sun for a day ... like magic, no more bubbles.

IRT your black nuts ... I have no response to that.
