Precut 3M CF key fob

Helping my friend gauge interest in seeing if you guys would be interested in this. Precut 3M carbon fiber vinyl for the key fob. Full back wrap and front center for the star. He's thinking about $5 per precut or $8 for two. Let me know what you guys think and if the pricing sounds fair.

I'd go for it.

I'm not sure if it's just me, but I'm seeing that the cut isn't QUITE even with the back. You still see some of the backing on the edges of the CF.

I did my own in 10 mins. Just buy the vinyl and stick it on, use a xacto knife or razor blade and just follow the grooves.

Yeah, this could be a DIY, but some are fat fingered or just lazy lol. The star insert part isn't that easy though. Anyways, just checking to see how everyone felt about pricing. He'll be posting on eBay or you can order now by contacting john at 626-355-6771. www.jsdesignfactory.com.

yes, he can, but you'd have to take it to him. He'll scan your key to get a layout pattern.

I can live without my key for a few days and use a different car, how long would it take?
