[trigger_storey]

Had some people that wanted to see some pics of the stillen lip in black. Also have a couple pics of the grille wrapped in carbon fiber vinyl. Pics were in garage cause its storming pretty bad here today. Ill post better pics later when a nice day comes around.

i like that look. the lip does bring the whole front together nicely, can't wait for pics in the sun. o yeah where did you get the vinyll wrap from?
p.s thanks for your comment on my post

I found it on ebay. I know there are multiple listings. Just search for 3m di-noc.

i like that overlay on your grille dude! good work, you did it yourself?
buddies have been telling me to use that material to wrap my roof, but iiidddkkk man.
anyway GREAT LOOK!

Yea I did it myself. Took about an hour with the heat gun and just stretching it. Came out pretty good especially since Ive never done anything with vinyl before. I know the material is really really easy to use though. Impossible to mess up. Just heat it up and go.

I like the fiber where the chrome used to be. I would have taken it one more step and fibered the burger, then painted the Nissan lettering a dark shade of gray. But it looks very stealthy.

I feel like my car is being copied.

[trigger_storey]

Well id hate to be doing something that has already been done too many times. Post pics of your car so I know what not to do in the future. LOL

lol everyone copies everyone around here, we (nico) come up with all the cool ideas. Think of it that way, us as a whole compared to everyone else, we are the different ones.

I would argue that all your mods aren't all your original ideas, and neither are mine. This community is so far spread out around the country that the chances of parking next to a car with all the exact mods as you have would be astronomically rare.


The spreading of ideas is cool! Not everyone is a right brained picasso of car mods.

hey trigger, did you use 1 piece of vinyl or did you have to do it in several different pieces?

oo me likey the grille and lip. Ive officialy warmed up to the new front end on the 2011. met 2 dudes w/ 2011s and were creating a small team lol but ya loook good alti!

[elfenlied8]

haha, i know. i'm just putting out my feelings.

I thought about cf overlaying the grille but i went matteblack instead. In fact i thought about cf overlaying my rear diffuser and roof anddd it turned out I got plain black overlays instead. Now i've got a good example of what it would look like from your pics =)

((i still dont know how to multi quote))
Phenom: ok, but when? cus im thinking about buying a roll like....now! haha!

[sebaslatino]

looks good bro. i like the grille the way you did it.

[trigger_storey]

I used one piece. It was 12x48. Bought it off ebay under 3m di-noc carbon fiber. I still have some pretty good size pieces leftover also. I just havent figured out if I want to try them on anything else or not. I was going to try to do the burger but it would have to be done with 2 seperate pieces as one peice wont wrap around all the curves. I may try to do some small interior mods and see how they come out.

[rcboy514]

how much did you end up paying for a piece that size?

[trigger_storey]

I believe it was $20 with free shipping. Just search on ebay and it will pop right up. They also sell the same stuff at this website which shows alot of pics and a few how to videos for different things. I guess people wrap their refrigerators, tables, phones etc in this stuff. LOL not my thing but Im sure it would look good. http://www.carbonfiberfilm.com/

you did a clean job with the cf wrap. it looks clean. i was thinking of doing a lil cf mod to my coupe as well... nothing outrageous tho. just a small piece in the front a small piece in the back... we'll see tho.
