My drivers side quarter window on my GT decided to crack in a couple locations and I'm not a fan on how she looks. I would love to purchase a rear quarter scoop but the budget will not allow that right now. I needed a quick fix to finish out the car show season and hopefully have enough money saved up by Christmas, I can buy my scoop. So my fix ended up with me purchasing a 2 foot by 5 foot sheet of carbon fiber car wrap on Ebay for $15. Installed it today and I actually like it more than I thought. It gives it a modern look. Some of todays supercars have real carbon fiber installed and I love that look. Installation was fairly easy as long as you have something to smooth out the bubbles as you lay it in place. The carbon fiber wrap is thick enough where it does a good job of covering all the cracks in the window and are not noticeable. I think overall it's a love it or hate it fix. Not real sure how to post pics. If someone will allow me to email them , then put a picture up of my car, that would be appreciated. Let me know what you think, LOVE IT or HATE IT. I'm a big boy, I can take it, thanks.

I can upload them...

I always felt that the 1/4 windows would be a great location to do a ram air scoops for the engine bay

Good deal you got them em up!!


I like it...


I plan on blacking out a set of the Junk Khines a friend gave me after one of them came off. I Am just going to stripp the paint and scuff the back really well and bond them with 3m urethane.

Then I'll do what you did with gloss black Hexis vinyl.

Yea, I thought the same thing . The gloss black would blend perfectly with the car. If you do it right, it looks like it's supposed to be there. I guess I've always liked the carbon fiber look and figured I'll give it a shot.

I can dig it, sure better than cracked windows.

Thanks, just noticed first pic looks a little off. Not sure what happened there.

Those look great! Overall your car is amazing. Like a mirror!

Hey, I try! It's pretty easy when the car comes out maybe 2-3 times a month. Thanks a lot

I just ordered my sheet of gloss black vinyl.

I can't wait to do the same thing to mine!

Make sure to post pics of what that looks like. I'm thinking I may try that on mine. I was going to paint them but I think the vinyl may do a better job at hiding cracks.

Just wondering if anyone else did this.

I've made these out of real carbon fiber for people in the past but in all honesty, today's newer carbon fiber vinyl looks great and for a fraction of the cost.

Any pics? What was the cost?
