Hi all.

 

I am thinking of changing the look of the Mini a bit and am thinking of having the bonnet, boot and roof covered in a carbon fiber wrap. I am sure there are some that look better than others so would appreciate any advice on a good source to buy from.

Thanks in advance

I wouldnt advise carbon wrapping, frind of mine did it on his (roof and bonnet) it scratches and marks sooooo easy and after a year or so i think he started to get weathering damage. I would save the money and get propert carbon bonnet, i think if you sell your bonnet  cost of wrapping it will probebly be about the same ;) i think they go fro about 80 -100 quid.

In addition, if there is any trapped moisture or rust, it reportedly accelerates the process somewhat.
