Let's mull this over. Carbon Fiber Hood Louver (HL3Z-16A624-AA)

What's up, my dudes? New owner of a 2020 Rappy here. Looking to add some classy bro touches, you know.

The real CF louvers make me tingle in all the right places. I can't stomach $700, though.

Anyone messed with CF WRAP? Thoughts on wrapping one?




Very boring factory part:

Sexy examples of aftermarket CF:

Recently gave my truck a toupee and figured this might be a solid contribution.

I'd be interested in anyone's CF wrap experience as well. I like the CF appearance, but agreed the true pieces are salty for what I assume is completely negligence gain in weight savings or ventilation. By the way, really like the top wrap piece. Looks sharp

Can you give any details on the top wrap? Loooing to do the same for my truck.

What about a hydro dip on the vents? All the different angles might be tough to achieve with a wrap.

Thanks for the kind words! Honestly I was afraid of people talking $hit about the fake CF, but I've had a TON of unsolicited compliments. I guess it's barely more than subtle - which is exactly what I was hoping for. In the right sunlight, you can catch the weave pattern. From more than 20 feet away it just looks like an interesting cap.

It's just 3m 1080 black black CF. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0058DIDTY/?tag=fordraptorforum-20

I had a local shop do it for $300, which seemed half-reasonable.


I looked at Hydro dipping, cant find anyone local that does it!

The parts are small enough I think you could just get a diy kit and give it a try. Should be pretty cheap to do.

Go for it. You can always take it off if it doesn't turn out well.
