Not sure if this is the right section to post it, but I'm just wondering if anyone in Victoria is interested in having their B-pillars wrapped in 3m Carbon Fibre Vinyl?

The 3M Carbon Fibre Vinyl has an outdoor life of 4-5 years with sun and shine. You can even feel the weave on the vinyl!

I'd be doing the wrapping myself. I've done it for Ashneel and SS8_Gohan already and they both seem happy with it.

I was thinking if there's enough people, I can do it for $30 per pair :banana:

Looks fantastic.

I had the Nismo garnish's on mine, but I have to admit that these a very schmick!

I was just about to spend like $130 on a pair of nismo ones, but after seeing them in real life, it honestly isn't impress me. IMO, the vinyl looks a lot better than nismo :)

I'd definitely be in, even if there is no group buy i'd pay you to do it

Well I'll see if there's gonna be more people interested, but if not, you can just drop by whenever and I'll do it for you :( doesn't take long at all.

If you are buying a bulk order of this wrap I'll buy some off you, as it is not cost effective to ship a small amount over. I'll do the wrapping myself as I just have a few interior trim pieces I want to do (and the B pillars too, but mine are much smaller than Skyline ones :banana: ).

Alright no worries, at this point in time, I'm looking to buy a 1.2m x 10m roll in a couple of weeks :)

Also, I've also started to wrap my mate's Liberty and it looks awesome :P

carbon bonnet Charles ! test ya skills !

very shortly you car will look like a honda yo ! :banana:

Then I can be one of those fully sick honda boys waiting for their vtec to kick in y0!

But nah, on the serious note, I thought about wrapping my bonnet, but I don't want to attract too much attention from the popos, as my car already stands out like dog balls, don't wanna add to it lol.

how much would it cost us for the materials, plus can u do the inside interior with that too?

hmm what you mean for materials? For your b pillars?

And yes I can do interior, click on the link on my signature to see everything that I did for my car.

Did the whole centre console and door handles and mirror etc.

Looks good Charles. Just wondering if you have any info about what to do when the vinyl starts expiring. Does it peel off or just fade? Is it easy to remove to replace a new layer? Or would you just wrap another layer onto the old one?

Well 3M stated that the vinyl can last about 4-5 years when it's outdoor (exterior) and about 12 years indoor (interior). So when it reaches its lifespan, it will just start to fade.

So then you can just use a heat gun to peel it off, then apply it again :D As the vinyl comes with an adhesive backing, it may leave a little bit of glue residue, but it can be polished off easily.

Removing the vinyl is easy, as I've done it so many times already, because I keep doing my interior parts until I get it perfect :thumbsup:

i want that knee pad!

Lol, get your own pad :cool:

I'm interested in this Charles. Perhaps I can come on the weekend and get them done?

Yeah no worries man, you can just come drop your parts off and pick it up a few days later, you can also have a look at what I've done for my car :P

If you want to come on the weekend, gimme a call on 0434 502 855 before you come.

    • Ended up spending a WHOLE day yesterday cleaning and rearranging my shed.  Due to the aforementioned disorder, my shed is as cluttered and confused as my brain. Again, because of said disorder,  at any one time there are 5 projects on the go at once and because they're still on the go I don't put everything away so I can "get straight back to it" which rarely happens.. So anyway,  I bought a couple of cheap 2mx2m all steel "pallet racks" to put in my back shed.  The idea is to then take pretty much everything out of the main shed that isn't car related. Most of the garden and building stuff is now booted out to the back shed and onto to the shelves where they belong! There's still more rearranging and reallocating to do and it's still a bit busy in there but it's a massive improvement on how it was previously. I've discovered floor space I forgot I had...  For those that have fully dismantled a car before will understand just how much space it takes up!  Particularly panels, bumpers, engine/trans, etc.  I've got stuff hanging on every available wall to get it up off the floor!  This is not exciting content for a blog but has certainly made the shed feel like a more work ready space now!
    • Updating results from our ATR43SS-1 turbo in T3 .63, OEM bolt dump pattern. Not a big number but pretty sweet for a stock Rb20det. Car's managed to pull 220rwkws at 20psi, perfect boost control internally gated with EBC and excellent mid top end power band as they usually skydive after 5.5K. Usual bolt on supporting mods and inlet plenum and factory location exhaust manifold. Pump 98 fuel was used (Ron 93).     
    • Yeah, well, it's not as though anyone is ever going to buy one of those noisy f**kers and put it into a new installation when there are better pumps that are near silent for less money from Ti.
    • I'd suggest having the engine builder listen to it, especially if they assembled it, and minimise how much you run it in the meantime. It may have a serious issue like a big end bearing from the description and I assume the rebuild was not cheap
    • Quite right, typing without checking, it is an 023 which was effectively the replacement for 040 (not that I could find either of them on the Bosch motorsport AU site), and it has a mesh inlet at the bottom of the pump rather than a separate filter
