just waiting to see if anyone else is interested. Also might be worth looking at these guys instead of the dry carbon wrap.

These guys are in Queensland http://www.mad-coatings.com/

what do you think?

Seems pretty pricey and wouldn't you have to send your parts away for them to coat? YES

Although they have gloss finish, isnt the drycarbon only satin look? YES

well it is more expensive than the dry carbon wrap and you do have to send them the parts but if you only have small items then I reckon its going to be a better option than trying to wrap it yourself. I am looking at getting the my fog light surrounds and the fake vents on the rear bumper done this way.

Yeah, the more I read on their site, the better it sounds. Have you requested any pricing for what you're getting done?

I am in the process of sending them an email with pictures of the items I want them to do. They say 7 day turn around for the job which I could live with so lets see what they quote me and I will post it here.

I just emailed them for a quote on doing the trim bits in the XR6T, all silver bits as per pics below -




Just got a reply - $440!!! plus freight.
Same thing in the dry carbon will be $65....

well US$65 for one linear foot of the dry carbon, plus a little for freight then you still have to either get someone to do it for you = labour cost or diy.

With those interior pieces you would think it would be pretty easy to get right with the diy but its up to you. Let me know what you want to do. I will be ordering a bit for myself just to play with but think I am def going to get mad coatings to do my exterior bits.
