Where was the source for the carbon fiber vinyl? I have not been able to find it locally.
BTW, did you just use a heat gun to form the curves?
It looks great.

I had my local print / sign shop print it for me. Yes a heat gun works great, the vinyl is tuff stuff but easy to form with heat gun. Yes e-bay is a good too.
