Carbon fiber trim wrap material?

Where is the best place to purchase material to wrap my trim? How much material will be ample enough for the whole job?

Thanks in advance guys.

check the sponser section. Multiple vendors on the board carry the cf wrap material. Two yards should be good. That gives you a lot of extra in case you screw up a lot.

Seems like both of them were basically the same price, but nefty wrap offered a kit with the glue and a cutter, so I went with them for convenience.

Thanks guys.

There are a couple ways to do it. With alittle patience and prep work you can wrap it in carbon fiber vinyl (sticker). There are a few on the market that look pretty good. I have pics of some that I have done recently (I work at a sticker shop in Chicago). PM if you need any help!

I've never had an issue with 3m 1080 Carbon Fiber Vinyl. Really high quality, relatively cheap, available on Amazon for quick shipping.
