Default First attempt at 3M carbon fiber.

Well about 2 months ago I avoided hitting a dog but ripped off my RTR splitter. I had planned to wrap it in carbon fiber ever since i got the RTR chin spoiler but I had just been lazy. Figured now would be a good time lol so I ended up wrapping the splitter in 3M carbon fiber and reinstalled it. This 3M stuff is GREAT! I also needed to get some new support rods as the original ones I had bent like a pretzel. So I went down to the race shop I used to work at and just installed some today.


Please excuse the dirty *** car. Its been raining down here and I haven't had time to give it a proper detail!

IMO, carbon fiber is hit or miss and you definately hit it right! That looks really good and very unique. Good job!
