Carbon Fiber Roof and Authentic Vertex Bumper & Sides

Finally got the Vertex Lang kit (excluding rear) installed in addition to a carbon fiber roof (not a vinyl overlay). Sorry for the crappy cell pics but my camera took a dump. I'll get better pics up once I purchase a camera.

Thanks guys! The metal roof remains they sanded it down and then installed the cf. What I meant by "not a vinyl overlay" was it's not an adhesive applied product.

It's been pretty tough keeping this secret but I'm glad to see you finally posted up the pics.

I saw this car last week and it looks AMAZING, the work done by Auto Explosions is TOP notch and seems be worth every penny. I think what I was most amazed with was how great the Vertex kit fits, easly a 9.5/10 and the CF roof is stunning.
Also, I think you're the first guy to get actual CF on the roof and not just some cheesey vinyl overlay. Grats newcastle, your car is a beast.

now hurry up and update that siggy of yours.

*veselini quietly creeps into newcastle's abode deep in the night, and steals his carbon fibre trunk, hood. roof, rims, and front bumper. He also leaves him a letter with a maniacal laugh enclosed, that would sound something like, "muwhaahahaha".
