Default hood bra using carbon or matte black vinyl

Any one know if anyone has had there Hood wrapped with matte black or carbon fiber vinyl to look like a OEM Hood bra? I have a plotter and would like to do this and was wondering if some one had a vector or template drawn up.

Should be simple enough. Lay and cut.

So you want to have the "look" of a bra by using vinyl?

Or just get the 3m clear bra so you don't look like a ricer.

If you really want to be cheap, go ahead, here's some plastidip samples:



How would your method get the texture and level of a hood bra.

I saw this at a meet once on an Integra. I thought it was the most retarded Honda mod Id ever seen. Guy even went as far as to draw "Integra" on the bottom left.


I laughed. Hard.
