it works but the thing is you will need some type of mold of some sort in order to actually make something, without molds you cant make anything.

I used to do fiberglass and carbon on wings for airplanes but we had molds for everything.

No molds = no carbon fiber

Expect to be spending more time sanding than doing anything else, as well as buffing.

:werd: 3/4 of the work is sanding and polishing, this video only works for wrapping parts, not molding them

I've had a shop wrap my parts professionally and they came out awesome

I'm sure it's like chess... learn in a day spend your whole life getting good.

Can't wait for something silly like a CF radio volume button.
