David...
You might try these guy's. They sell the 3M Di-Noc. I haven't tried it myself....... yet.

I was planning on trying them for the next order.

The Di-Noc material is a great product.. Not cheap, but you will be very happy with it..
If doing any major convex bends/curves it might help to use some adhesive spray or liquid to keep the vinyl from "popping" back up.. -
Agreed Di-Noc is the way to go..

Hmmmmm.... Not very attractive.
So is this a vinyl film with a photographic image of CF?
I think the Di-noc has a "coined" surface that mimic's the CF weave. -
:nonod: really does look like some bad stuff
-
Yep, it is a printed image.. Bad image at that..

The best printed stuff I've seen is at Tapeworks.com
Doesn't compare to Di-Noc but is much cheaper.. -

Anyone catch last American Chopper where the paint guy painted CF look by hand? Very impressive. -
