Come on Hurdy, you're getting so much abuse over this, surely its time to come to your senses and drop the ghastly idea.  We'ill all feign collective amnesia and pretend this unfortunate episode never happenned and your reputation will remain intact  :lipsrsealed:  :grin: :grin: :grin: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

Do it!!! Be different, be original. I think it will look seriously cool in the flesh. Maybe the whole idea/concept is a little too crazy, but I think the finished product will look cool.

Id never do it myself, the most I'd do is do the bonnet and the roof - but I think it will make your car seriously special if you do.

I wouldn't mind it on just the roof actually. Would look a bit like the W12's roof  :laugh:.

Here are a few pics that Carbon Skin sent me :smiley:

Still tempted as these pics look gorgeous, especially the Merc in the gloss CF wrap.

Remember this is a step above the run of the mill stuff you normally see and is partly done for show and partly to preserve the car against chips scratches etc :cool:

I'd do it all in black though :)
And I prefer the carbon fibre effect!

without doubt Hurdy!!! Do it!

You obviously want to, otherwise you wouldnt have posted it up and researched it as you have.

You only live once....and probably wont have another ED30 after this one (im guessing?), so do whatever you want to do whilst you still have it! Thats my approach!
