ok now that the carbon fiber is in i have started on this project. i am currently working on it for my 93 probe gt so pics will be posted soon to show how it was done. please note this project is using real carbon fiber not some cheap vinal cf look crap. this also is just an overlay not a production vacuum formed or molded piece. if you are looking to save a few ounces this is not for you. but if you are looking to gain the appearance of the real thing then read on.
I know this may seem like a lame write up but I have been asked this question before so I figured I would do a how-to for it.
When we bought my wifes neon it had a nasty cut on it that was in a very bad place. If we did not do something it would have tore soon and then we would have had to replace the steering wheel. So we opted for a steering wheel cover to get by for now.
Now do you think looking cool takes alot of money? is so ill prove you wrong over and over. and here is one way to improve the looks (and safety) of your ride.
Every one has seen them. so you know what im talking about. its those yellowed, nasty oxidized lights on cars. i have seen them on sweet cars but any car with them always looks bad. you dont have to go and run out to buy new ones. heres an easy and cheap way of restoring the ones that you have.
Ok I am going to make this a quick how-to since it is fairly easy and quick to do so here goes.
On a lot of newer cars the parking lights and such are painted with a clear protective coating. With these clear coated lights you cant just go by my other how-to to get them looking new again. If your parking lights are clear coated you will have a completely different job ahead of you to get them refinished. so here goes.
