Thanks for the support guys! I don't think I need to say much else. Trolls will be trolls.

If anyone has any additional questions, please feel free to contact me.

Cheers!

So it looks like you can clear coat this...

Would clear coating it on my roof make the material last longer? I want to install it on my roof but I don't want it to fade and look cheap. any suggestions?

Oh snap! With a come-back like that, who's going to question your maturity?!?

ok, so can I point out that a vinyl molecule contains quite a bit of carbon?
So which is worse, a polymer infused carbon sheet laminate, or a carbon based polymer laminate sheet?

I just want to know where i said this was real carbon fiber? Dont think those words ever came out of my mouth. All i said is it had the appearance of carbon fiber. Question maturity with smack talk.

OP it looks great. Dont let anyone tell you different. Also the YANKEES are FTMFW. We will take the rangers and the phils again for number 28.

SNAP! Thanks for posting that link. I am going to try it on something small inside my car (door pulls or ashtray.) I hope I can find that spray stuff though.

LOL I'm a 17 year old child that drive's mommy's yukon! who knew? Anyhow, Slick6MT, it looks GREAT and I will probably do this to mine as I'm buying my first G35 not this weekend but the next, because a lot of the silver trim on the inside is worn out. Thanks for the thread! Anyone have any other cool vinyl overlay ideas?

I have seen this clearcoated in person and feel that the dry look is better for this product. THe clearcoat does make it shiny but that does not always mean it looks better. As for making it last longer?? The di-noc is already has a 6 year warranty for ourdoor use (2 colors only). By placing the clearcoat on it, you would be limited to how well the application of the clear is. I do know for me, cleaning this stuff is so easy. I usually hose it off and wipe it down, It dries very quick.

To each their own though.....

i agree with you on this point. Plus, to add to this statement.....since this material is a vinyl with a texture, it is waterproof as well. I have done some of this to my G as well as others in my area. It definitely gives the interior a customized look than the blah silver.
Here are a few things that i've done with this stuff:









OP, hope you dont mind me adding some pics on your thread. You definitely did a good job on applying this on your interior.....

^pretty cool. I agree that without the clear coat, it looks better. But only from what I've seen on the video.

And you wanna talk petty? How about driving a Black Coupe? Less car for more money, in a color that's difficult to maintain and sucks in waaaay too much heat? You make me laugh!
Why don't you go be a tw@twaffle somewhere else!
Hey leave black coupes out of this!

I love this thread and I love trolls but throwing out the.. "at least I don't own a black coupe" remark, just sounds like you are desperately reaching for anything to say.

The Dinoc is a sticker.
Real carbon is STILL a sticker (using double sided tape much lately?)

Until you pull off your old dash trim and REPLACE it with a Solid piece of beautiful, fappy carbon fiber... there is nothing to argue about except whose carbon STICKER/Decal is better/thicker/expensive.




Yankees blow.
