Guide to making foolproof awesome looking Carbon Fibre

Please note the carbon fibre must be made over a solid graphite coloured object so either Colour Your Whole Car or your bonnet this METALLIC Colour

Or if your car is a different colour cover and you want to cover a random area that isnt the bonnet you want place a vinyl of this colour underneath.

Note if doing a small area and applying a vinyl below the results wont look quite so good, but still good!

Step 1

Apply Vinyl Shape - Stripes - Stripe 17

Make it this colour:

Resize it to:

X - 0.21
y - 36.61 or more, not less (make sure this stretchs over the widest point of the area)
Spin - 28.00

You should have something looking like this

Copy this layer and duplicate, align it up exactly parallel. You made need to overlap it just slightly to make it look continuous. Once you have about 3 lined up you can copy those 3 layers and line them up etc, until you have covered the whole area.

Step 2:

Apply Vinyl Shape - Stripes - Stripe 17

Make it this colour:

Resize it to:

X - 0.15
y - 36.61 or more, not less (make sure this stretchs over the widest point of the area)
Spin - 334.73

You should have something looking like this

Again start duplicating and lining up

When you have covered your area, tidy up any edges and voila, you have carbon fibre

Step 3:

Requoting my quote of the OP's pics.

im having trouble making a cf hood for a viper. i keep running the lines over the fender. is there a tip for keeping the cf clean and inside a specific area?

The CF will always go over the edges of panels. You will have to lay down blocks of colour at the edges to make it follow the edges of other panels
