Looks alright...It still doesn't have the depth of real CF. You won't fool anyone who knows what they're talking about.

Here's the link in the video for more detailed pictures: http://www.fullblownkustoms.com/projects/show/186

Yeah I know, It's just a cheap way out 4 anybody who is interest in it. This is just for anybody who might want a carbon hood look and can use this if they want to.

i have done it once before it looks ok from a distance but once you get up on it looks fake. just get that anti slip stuff that has the holes in it and try it out on something dont hammer the paint on just like a misting over the holes

dosent look too hard, i suppose you could use this techniuqe to paint stuff that you want to have the look but dont want to spend the money, i would rather drop another few bucks on the real stuff though.

It's clear why they don't show any close ups of the result...

Sorry, but the end results don't look very close to the real material. And, to be honest, I don't understand the point of it. Trying to make something look like something it isn't? Why?


PS. That's not airbrushing.
