well if there are no aftermarket parts, the skin seems to be the way to go, i have this in my head now that i need it! i wonder how convincing looking the skin is? it looks the part on the website anyway.

the price looks decent too, i am wondering could i just post my rear diffuser over and get them to do it or would they post over the carbon fibre sheets.
I was at a VW show today and all the R32 boys had aftermarket carbon fibre parts and it looked the business.

Roofs from £190
Full Matt Wraps from £780
Bonnets from £180
Full Colour Wraps from £750
Interior plastics from £105
Full Carbon Wraps from £1200


P.S the jury is still out on the ms design rear diffuser for me anyway.

Great catch with http://www.carbonskin.co.uk/index.html

like the look of that wrap, see the example prices are for a smart car tho and there obviously tiny compaired to a leon roof or bonnet.

Is it just me or does that Leon diffuser (which I was thinking about myself would be pretty neat) look like a photoshop job?

Some bits just don't look like it's an actual part.

I have been to look at something that may be the same as the stuff in the link, It does look quite good but if you know what you are looking at you can tell the difference.
TBH "REAL" Carbon wrapping is a compleate biach to do and I am seriously thinking about going back and trying the stuff I looked at before.
Also have a look at Robdon's build thread, He's used something similair.

Here's a few bit's that I'v done in real carbon

WOW, u used actual carbon, fair play, all looks good.I thought the stuff in the carbonSkin was just light a sticker with a carbon affect.

How hard was this to do and whats the cost of the carbon?
