Hello all. Just getting some ideas for my truck to make it unique, but has anyone wrapped their exterior with carbon fiber?
What I'm thinking of doing to my black quad cab ram is to wrap the bottom half of the doors with carbon fiber if I decide to pick some up Amazon.com....very similar if I bought rocker panels...but cheaper. I love the look of the the 2 tone laramine so i want to do something similar.
I seen some hoods but not any the sides. Any pros or cons to doing this?
I just want to make my truck unique to the other beauties out there.

Amy pics would be greatly appreciated.

the only con i see is the way its going to look. but i guess to each his own. carbon fiber wrap can be a bit of a challenge to keep the lines straight and symmetrical if you've never used it before, tackling the rockers right of the bat might be hard. id probably say if you do decide to go for it, start with something smaller.

Gotcha. I've worked on carbon fiber on the inside of my truck. I want to get some silver/ gray on the inside and outside. I'm not going to go crazy with it either, I'm just covering the bottom half then come up to where there is the indent half way up. I should be able to stay on that line if I just pulled out enough paper and just eye ball it with that line.
