Red carbon fiber You guys with red cars might like this. I pulled it off the airbrush forum. Its a pic of normal carbon fiber with a coat of kandy red over it. Pretty cool look and definately unique. Guess you could also spray a blue kandy to match nmb cars as well. Thought i would let you guys take a look.

looks good but why not just buy some red carbon fiber? It would be just as easy. I really do like the look though.. of course I have red carbon fiber fuel rail covers.

The red CF (like 01 Reds) is probably cheaper, but IMO the Kandy'd look has a shine to it more which is what I'd like. I'd spend a few extra bucks to kandy it, especially if its a big part like that.
Nothing against 01 Red, cause his engine bay is clean as hell w/ the FRCs, STB and the way everything works together.

I doubt its any cheaper than doing the kandy but I could be wrong. The Kandy does look cool and I think it would like to give it a try on my interior. I think it would look really cool
and dont worry I didn't think that you were bashing my bay. Everyone has their own taste

He sells some with the two cuts in the driver side but everything else I had to do myself. Its not that hard but it takes a long time. I cut a little off at a time so I could get it right and everything came out good. The main problem I had was that stupid dip stick. Took several tries to get that right
