Project Carbon Wrap Day 4
« on: July 20, 2010, 06:53:00 pm »
Well as i picked up my spare grille surround that i'd left at my folks this weekend. When i got in today i decided to see what it would look like Carbon Wrapped.

So here it is

Before



After



Im actually quite impressed and like it so i've left it as is
