    Best way to carbon fiber grille

    Im a beginner on carbon fiber, but recently it has come into my interest. Out of curiosity, what would be the best way to make a old style vr4 grille carbon fiber and also the mitsu emblem on the trunk?

    I was looking into wrapping it, but that seems pretty difficult to get a really good job done.

    well i guess really the only way to do it is to wrap it in the material...must be a pretty lengthy process tho

    If you are honestly wanting to do it your self, I would start by learning on something extremely simple. Just a small flat board or something. I started to get into it and wasted a lot of supplies learning. Eventually you will get it. I'm a hands on learner so no matter how much I read, it only helped when i applied it my self.
