Hi Guys,

I want to send my centre console, gear surround and clock surround to be wrapped in a Matt carbon style vinyl.

Can anyone point in the right direction?

Thanks :)

I stopped about a year ago now, profit margins plummeted and too many other outfits offering to do similar jobs for half the price using crap quality eBay vinyl

I know a lad who's just started offering hydro graphics mate, I've text to see if he does a matt CF finish & guide prices if it's something you'd be interested in?

Can't say I've ever seen a Matte carbon..it's always got a shiny nature to it due to the actual printing process to make the weave apparent. Here's an interior I wrapped a while back anyway

Wrapped to keep a consistency between the upper and lower part

Thanks for the replies people. :)

I was prob talking poop when I said matte carbon and the pics John has posted is exactly the kind I want.

Whats the ballpark kinda figure I should be paying to get this done?

It's the transfer of graphics to an object using water to suspend the graphic. He's text back & you'd be looking at £60 ish for the centre console in CF finish.

Here are a few examples of Hydro graphics:

I'd have a look at dipping close up as it's not to everyone's taste, depending on the contours of the part the pattern can get very distorted and cheap looking

It's basically the same look you get when you buy carbon fibre look parts, no. plate holders, gauge pods etc

At least with wrap you have the 3D effect which changes in the light, so looks much more realistic

I'm thinking about going corp & offering this as a service guys, would there be plenty of interest?
