Carbon Fiber Sticker as a Protection?

**chrisgabinete** · June 24th, 2015 08:10 PM

Nagpalagay ako nito dati sa Mazda 3 ko. CF sa hood, roof and trunk then matte black sa sides. I knew at that time na baka sabihing ricey. Pero wala akong pakialam. Intention ko nun for maintenance. Matipid kasi. No need for regular waxing. Hugas-punas lang. Malaki ang natipid ko. Then wala pang stress kahit may gasgas kasi alam mo na sticker lang yun. OC pa naman ako when it comes to my car. I got complimented about it naman. Tinginin ang kotse. Now that I have the new M3 I'm also planning to have it covered again for the same reasons.

Bottomline: Do what you want. Kotse mo yan. Don't listen to what other people tell you. Di naman sila ang gagastos.

I like the clear vinyl sticker idea.

Hirap nga namang mag-maintain ng sasakyan lalo ngayon na uulan at aaraw.

Just this afternoon i saw a T86 with a carbon fiber sticker hood and trunk. Nyeta how ricey can one get!? The car already speaks for itself without anything added to it. Would you do that to a prosche or ferrari? Definitely not! So why would one do it to a T86? Because it's "just" a toyota ang you need to make it look what?

Dapat siguro may neurological exam din muna bago bentahan ang prospective buyers ng mga top models ng kotse. Di porke may pera ka pwede ka na bumili kung may ricer tendencies ka.

Plastidip might be a cheaper and better looking alternative than CF stickers. Not sure about the pricing but saw a sedan once with a matte plastidip allaround coat and it looked really ***y.

What's with the CF stickers and ricer comments? TS' idea of using CF stickers as paint protection makes more sense to me than say, having really dark tint on your windshield then installing HIDs / ledbars because you can't see at night lol

Boss wag ka ng magpalagay ng CF sticker, maganda lang sa umpisa, but later on it will wear and tear, ang sakit sa mata, ganyan nangyari sa R33 ko ng nilagyan ko ng CF sticker yung wing. Gandang ganda ako sa umpisa hanggang sa magsituklap isa isa yun plastic coating nya. Eyesore na tuloy.

Yup, maganda lang sa umpisa.. Nagpalagay din ako ng cf sticker sa trunk ng vios, to complement sana yung Smoked LED tail light ko...after ilan months due to wear and tear, may portion na natuklap, pangit ng tingnan... Tinanggal ko na lang, though na protect nga niya yung paint sa gasgas and fade... Pero ngayon ayaw ko na magpalagay ng cf sticker hehe... Medyo hassle din kapag natuklap na... Curious lang ako kung ano ang kotse ni TS

Kawawa mga networker niyan. Mga 90% ng mga sports car na may MLM sticker sa likod, rice.

I agree.

+1 those who use noisy mufflers just to mimic big/strong engine "kuno". TS' idea is for paint protection anyway. Maybe just explore other alternatives.
