Hi all...
So I've searched the forum and cannot find anything relating to my latest mod... Carbon Fiber Vinyl...
You may be thinking 'What a plank' or 'Some people' but if used right, Carbon Fiber Vinyl is a material which can transform your case with minimal effort.
The stuff is dead cheap and super easy to apply... Forget about buying that can of spray you know isn't gonna quite do the job right... You can get Carbon Fiber Vinyl in any color your heart desires... And stick it on whatever part you wish to change the color and leave a desirable carbon fiber texture.
When it comes to modding, there's no knowledge like shared knowledge so lets share some ideas, examples and questions... If you need guidance on how to apply vinyl, let me know and I'll make a video or something to share the tips and tricks I've picked up on while covering my own case...

Re: Carbon Fiber Vinyl - Chassis Modding
Nice, have been thinking about doing this for some time, but have not been sure what the end result would be like. But now I see that it looks just awesome, also thinking of using some of that 5bar tread plate inside the case

Take a look for some awesome pics.Carbon fibre - a modders guide
As materials go, carbon fibre isn't something you'd associate with anything other than a Formula One racing team, or a supercar. However, we've seen a couple of modders incorporate it into their builds over the years (craigbru's OSIDIAS springs to mind), and they're not just using this fancy material for the odd detail either. Forum user Cleveland216, aka Dave Biro, has recently completed a simply stunning tribute to advanced aircraft design using only carbon fibre to construct the outer shell of the case, with an aluminium core.
