Default C/F Applique panels?

Who makes c/f applique panels?? I saw them quite a while ago, but can't find them now.

These pieces...

IMHO the applique panels looks bad. I found some CF wrap and completely wrapped mine. That way you dont see the ugly line were the sticker ends. Just a thought for you

Most all of the ones I have seen were just stickers that cover the upper triangle portion of the trim piece.

I have some CF left over from my interior project I just finished and could easily wrap those for you. Shoot me a PM if you're interested.

It is an 11oz 2x2 twill weave (slightly larger than normal). Check it out here:

I've got some carbon fiber di-noc I could make a decal with. Here's a finished pic: http://showcarforum.com/threads/15-W...amp-Sail-Panel

Those were obviously removed and fully wrapped but I think you could get pretty close to the edge without having to remove them... If anyone's interested let me know and I'll work on it.

Don't know if you were asking me or YOFAB. I got my carbon fiber and resin from US Composites.

You can get the di-noc vinyl stickers that YOFAB was talking about at a number of places, just google "3M di-noc".

Nice.. I guess that answers my question on "Where do I find this."

I think I'm gonna get a decent sized roll of this Di-Noc stuff... And can I stick emblems/badges TO this stuff?
