Where did you get the adhesive? Is there a specific brand, etc? Pic of the can? I'm thinking my DDM box would look sweet in CF.

This is true CF? I've seen the ebay add, but it looked like a cloth sheet... this looks shiney. I thought you had to apply a coating on it to make it shiney... Very cool, BTW.

Thanks. Yes its true carbon fiber. It comes with a clear coating on top to make it glossy.. although it may be cheaper and look the same if you get the fake stuff... The problem is will it last? we'll see
