What are peoples thoughts on using carbon wrap on the lower half of the car, ie the lower doors/rear lower quarter panels etc...yes or no?
-
Just like painting it really except if you dont like it anymore you can pull it off.What kinda colour or pattern was you thinking of doing?
-
hello mate i have done quite a few vinyl wraps now on various areas on cars and tbh mate i thing carbon wrap on the lower part of the car ie everywhere under the plastic mouldings wouldnt look good.
-
I've had a good look through various pictures of cars that have used wrap on different bits of the car and some of them look quite good, especially green and black but i've not seen a mk3 with anything other than the bonnet and/or roof done.

But to be fair thats a pretty vivid shade of green, mine is a lot darker.

you any good with photoshop? if so it can give you an idea what it could look like. your right i dont even like the green on the car so could be why.
-
but remember carbon wrap also look like matt black enless very close up. so unless you was right next to the car it wold look flat black

I think it might work on a mk3 without the gti sill trim and arches but maybe too much with all the lower half plastic.

take a look at the bonnet of the car on the left in my sig pic. that is carbon wrap. that is what it would look like.
