V is screwed through the mesh, so it's either a clam off job or you can break the V around the screws.

Also some (me included) are not too keen on the grill with no V. There's just something not right about it.

[VXT Tim]

Got mine from amazon but just had a quick look and there's none available.

[VXT Tim]

Even plastidip uk has no stock.

Sent them an email asking when it'll be back but who knows... There's plenty of the non-aerosol stuff available

This is what I did today. Not sure whether to go carbon or dip for the the backs, what you lot think?

Dip it also. The CF color is clashing with the matt black. If you like CF better, keep the mirror foots blue. Contrast is always better.

Is that a carbon wrap on the mirror...and if so was it easy to do as it looks ok.

the top pic looks wrapped to me but the others don't, I did my surround and a mirror as I was unsure if it would weather well, the surround looks as well now as when I did it but the mirror vinyl has warped and started to lift so im looking to do the mirror backs in this plasti stuff. the surround was easy to wrap but the mirror was a pain to get a flat none wrinkled finish.

Quite like the finish the Metalizer spray gave to the white wheels in one of the vids, the silver would look good on the black for a metalic gloss look.

It is annoying it's $6 a can in the us

Yeah i think they are keeping the supplies low to keep the price high over here ! currently i could vinyl wrap my wheels for less !

[pete-r]

It is a wrap, but looks IDENTICAL to real CF once a clear coat is put onto it. Ive made real carbon parts before, and there is no difference other than the weave is easier to handle.

Just tried to order the last can of black plast dip for £19.99 off ebay earlier, but my Paypal account was playing up so couldn't. Now they have all sold out I'm in no rush I guess
