No, I do not. It's a special/specific film that I use to do those with.

When you go to tint your windows, even the guys at the tint shops warn you against using any other than water to clean your windows/tint on the inside. Imagine how long tint would last if it was used on the outside, exposed to the outside elements 24/7.

Vinyl wrapped the hood of this Acura RSX in the 3M di-noc carbon fiber vinyl. Don't mind the dusty marks/shadows. Forgot to clean it off before taking the pictures.

Just to be clear, since I know I'll have some people ask me if I can wrap their hoods. The material is not wide enough to wrap/do most hoods, except on smaller cars, such as this RSX. If you're interested in getting your hood wrap, measure your hood beforehand and give me the measurements of your car, so that way I can determine if it'd be possible or not.

Vinyl roof wrapped this R35 GTR's roof with some 3M Di-Noc carbon fiber vinyl, and also did the center of his rear spoiler.

Let me know what you guys think.

Vinyl wrapped the roof of this BMW E92 M3 in the carbon fiber 3M di-noc material.

Just to avoid any confusion, his antenna was painted matte black, not wrapped. Also, it was only placed on there temporarily for pictures, hence why you can see a gap between the antenna cover and roof in some of the pictures.

Let me know what you guys think.

What finish?

Here's pictures of a white BMW E90 3 series that I vinyl wrapped the roof with in gloss black. He also had black wheels, so it'll give those who are curious how the black roof works with black wheels.

Here are pictures of the fogs that I vinyl wrapped/tinted in a yellow film.

Let me know if any of you would be interested in getting this done on your cars.

How much for the 3m di noc carbon fiber? I'd like to do some trim pieces and maybe the roof, DIY. Thanks.

Smoked/tinted the tails on this new Mercedes E class. Trimmed out the reverse/turn signal portions as well for him.

Let me know what you guys think.

Vinyl wrapped the roof of this E60 BMW 550i in gloss black material.

I know almost all of my pictures of white cars, but I must admit, they do look the best on white cars. Although, I do wish cars of other colors would come by to get it done, and add a little bit more of variety, haha.

Here's a white C300 Mercedes that I vinyl wrapped the roof in gloss black for. Note, the roof/side rails were already black, and so was the antenna.

I may mildly regret posting these pictures, but I had some people ask me if I've done it before, and to post pictures if I do/have. Well, here are pictures of an aftermarket Mercedes C class front grill that I vinyl wrapped in the 3M Di-noc carbon fiber material.

Now note, it's not really possible...actually let me rephrase that...it's not really practical to wrap some of the grills that are out there, due to its design and shapes. However, this one is one of those exceptions.

Sorry for the pictures, I didn't have much lighting, and had to use a flash to even get the weaves to show. Let me know what you guys think.

You have any pics of satin black vinyl? Thinking of wrapping my hood, roof, trunk...my car is black now, looking for something of a two tone look, but more subtle than the carbon fiber.

Do you mean matte, like this, or specifically satin (semi gloss)?

I think satin, which I believe to be a darker black. In person, to me, matte black looks gray.

The picture I posted of above is matte. How it looks in the pictures is how it looks in person. No color changing are ever done in my pictures.
