Fake Carbon Fiber ?
 
guys; how do you see if the CF is fake or real ?

i've seen some real CF but just wonder if replicas one are very similar or you can
tell it with the naked eyes ?

from far like 1meter and above, fake looks nicer. real looks slightly yellowish

fake means made by machine i.e printed on so it will be smooth and even. real ones tend to be wavy because its hand made..unless its a superb job.

real ones has a 3D looking effect when looked at near.
fake ones,u can see ink pixels - and thats how u tell.

given the vast price diff and minus the yellowish tint, i would go for fake cf printouts.

if same price and is cheap, i would still go for fake cf, unless the real 1 is top notch super job but since its cheap i dont think its going to be that.

if same price and both expensive.. then ofcos i will go for real ones la...unless its crap job then i might still consider fake ones

depends what the application is for... for external body parts i definately go for real except for gt wings.
if interior and small parts, ill consider fake ones.
