5D carbon fiber vinyl is a vinyl that closely resembles real carbon fiber.

Did you remove the old vinyl before putting the carbon on? I've got some extra vinyl and will be doing this soon.

Didnt have time to get them done this weekend. Got one side done, but not entirely happy and will do the drivers door again. Did you tuck any film into the window seals or cut it just short of them?
Front lip spoiler arrived today, so that is on the list as well to do.

5D does look pretty solid, 4D was a joke attempt. What's a yard of this stuff cost?

Looks great! I'm in the process of wrapping my entire car and was thinking about doing a carbon or gloss black overlay on those parts. Also, anybody thats interested should make use of knifeless tape! It makes it incredibly easy to get perfectly straight lines without needing to put a knife to your paint.
