Carbon Fiber is a great way to make any RC car or truck stand out from the crowd, but how do you do it? In this episode of 10th Scale Garage, we show you how to add carbon fiber pieces to your radio control ride. We test the Duplicolor Carbon Fiber paint kit, as well as the Vivid Carbon Fiber vinyl wrap. If you've ever wanted to know how to use them, this is the video for you.

Absolutely love it 🤟 the 1st custom body I done in the early 00's was an R34, Done it black with a silver stripe down the middle. Had the same silver GTR sticker as yours, I used a carbon effect A4 sticker to do carbon hood. Bringing back some memories with this build

3M- their Vivid line. I can’t remember the color, but it’s tamiya paint. They only have a few color changing ones.

Cool video guys! It looks like Ethan and I enjoy the same brand of wobbly pop.....PBR nation stand up!! Also, I just started dirt oval racing. I got a jconcepts body for buggy street stock. The sticker pack comes with monte Carlo OR grand national stickers. I'd love to see Ethan make an rc version of HIS favorite car. When I saw those stickers I had to do my dirt oval in solid black with window tints. Every time I crash it I cringe a bit!! It looks so good!! You may want to visit mccallister racing for body mounts with that body. I think im buying another body to put on a bandit chassis with the stock M/T tires from my losi 22s drag.....should resemble Doms buick pretty well.

That looks great guys. Would've probably been easier to work with using a hair dryer to get it in the nooks and crannies easier. I've done the paint side of it when I was custom painting with the drawer liner and it was ok using an airbrush, but the wrap definitely looks better.

🤔 Perhaps a hair dryer may work better than a heat gun. A heat gun is immensely hotter than a hair dryer. Less chance of deformation of the lexan.
