    Question Wrapper?

    Took Troika to custom shop today to get carbon fiber wrap. They said that they could do it but it won't last 6 mos on flat black textured surfaces. Seemed like guy was being straight with me so I'm getting glossy panels done but it will be nothing like I wanted. Comments?

    I had the same discussion with a wrap guy near me. He said he could do only the smooth panels. I think I might be going the plastidip route.

    Default Nice to know....

    glad he let you know but what about the Hydropaint/hydrodipping ..? they do carbon as well and could work better than wrap....just a though for others to check into...

    I agree, plastidip is the way to go.
