VVIVID Epoxy High Gloss Carbon Vinyl Automotive Wrap Film DIY Easy to Install No Mess (1ft x 5ft, Black)

My order arrived quickly and as described. The actual product consists of three layers: a thin, clear protective layer, the actual faux carbon fiber vinyl, and a white paper backing. When unrolling the product, you'll find that the product will want to spring back into the curled form quite aggressively, so much so that the clear film will crinkle and separate from the vinyl in places. Don't worry, as this is completely normal and the vinyl is what is important, not the film or backing. The vinyl itself was very impressive. I've worked with quite a few vinyl appliques, and this one seems to be of very good quality (though I'll reserve my final decision for when it's been on the car for an extended period). Application was straightforward and I found that I could get away with applying it to fairly complex parts without having to resort to window film spray, though on larger pieces I would definitely recommend it. Once the film was in place, some gentle application of heat with a heat gun set it in place and allowed it to conform perfectly to the piece. Running a soft cloth over the surface helped to set it in place and press it into small recesses. In sunlight, this product really stands out. Light will reflect from the "carbon fibers" in a highly realistic fashion. I am exceptionally happy with the look and have high hopes that it remains durable for years to come.

Sticks really well. easy to manipulate and fold around mirror caps and rounded surfaces. not too thick good quality vinyl. still good after 2 years.

I like the appearance, but it was hard to work with and the adhesion was not as sticky as I would have liked, it has started to lift around edges/corners. Overall, I’m satisfied with the product.

I've never liked vinyl carbon fiber, it always looks very fake and cheap. However, I really wanted some trim pieces in my car to be carbon fiber. I searched around and stumbled on this product. I decided to give it a go, along with 3 other brands and I would simply pick whichever I liked best. I had never heard of VVIVID before so I wasn't expecting too much. Holy cow was I wrong. As soon as I took all the vinyls out of the box, I immediately knew which one to use. This stuff looks great, it has depth and reflects light more like carbon. I was so impressed with the looks that I packed up all the rest and sent them back. I just spent the past few hours wrapping some trim pieces with it. It is quite a bit thicker than most other vinyls, so it will definitely take some heat to get it to do what you want. Some people say it doesn't stick, but they must not have watched the companies installation videos on how to activate the adhesives. It is designed not to be too sticky at first so you can reposition it easily, then you activate the adhesives with heat according to their instruction. I had no problem getting it to fit very complex curves and corners. It seems to stick very well. IMO, you need to get the "VVIVID Epoxy High Gloss Black Carbon fiber", their other carbons dont look as great as this does. All in all, I liked the end result so much that I logged onto Amazon at 1 am to write this review. :D

So I have used many different carbon wraps over the years even way back when it was not a thing. I have to say They have come a long long way. This is definitely one I recommend to my clients as a great beginner’s project. I tell my clients to always leave a little extra then use the heat gun and smooth it out. It will shrink and it can stretch nicely. It is somewhat forgiving. It was extremely wrinkled right out of the box. Sadly that whole area was a waste even after using heat gun. For straight areas this works wonders and you will get a great finished piece. For arches dashes and around gauge clusters you need to leave a little extra so you won’t be left with short edges once it sets in. I found it easy to work with However the three stars was because of the lifting in some areas and excessive shrinking in rounded areas and because way too much of the product was creased and needed to thrown out. The epoxy black was my favorite, the matte grey was awful to work with and looked like a matte cheap sticker.

Looks really good and looks like real carbon fiber. It was my first time working with vinyl and i done it on a small part on my car it's a Lil thick to me but once I put some heat on it it started to get alot easier to work with.

My order is crap!!! rolled up by hand, creases one inch apart. Vinyl is not sticking to the back paper and has damage to it. Couldn't roll it up nice and slide it into a box . This is a minus 5 stars.

This product was easy to use and apply. It takes a little bit of patience but if you watch a couple of YouTube videos you can figure it out pretty easily. I saw some people complain about the thickness of the material and I did not think that was the case. I would recommend this as long as you have some patience and some time it's a good product.

No batallamos para forras los bo, súper recomendado 😍

Really happy with this carbon wrap. Used a heat gun to wrap carbon around door handle, easy to use and looks great!

Check out a few DIY guides on youtube before trying it out. It'll save you a lot of money.

I used this vinyl wrap on my side mirrors and it came in a big roll so first of all you need to cut it to the correct length you’re working with, then lay something heavy like a small toolbox on top it it to make it flat otherwise its very hard to work with due to it being so bendy from packaging. It takes a few tries to make it how you like it. This was my first time wrapping something but I can say I got a lot better at it I would reccomend using a felt squeegee to get rid of the creases. Heat up the piece you’re working with with a heat gun. Heat gun is absolutely necessary. Then stretch your piece over the surface. it worked great once I got the hang of things but it’s definitely not a piece of cake like some may think… The result is great, I had to do my side mirrors in 3-4 different pieces per mirror since my side mirrors don’t come apart at all and are very weirdly shaped. Make sure to clean the surface as well before you stick the wrap on! These steps should give you a great result! Would be 5/5 if it had instructions and wasn’t so bendy.

We bought this product for car project ,not yet use it . Looks very durable
