Hi Everyone,

First time poster, just wanted to share some pics of some carbon wrapping I had done.

All work performed by Heath and Sam from D & S tint here in Adelaide, Lonsdale, (08) 8186 5283 Unit 5/18 Ellemsea Circuit, Lonsdale 5160.

Although some may hate the ricey goodness I have to commend D & S for a pretty outstanding level of quality and customer service.

Aesthetically it's on the money for me and I love looking at it everyday!

Had to provide the link to the rx8 forum as the pic attachment didn't work for me.

Hope you enjoy!

Nice final product! That roof looks the goods!!

D&S Auto are a great bunch of guys. One of the former owners had a FD3S.
The workmanship of these lads is unsurpassed. They do tinting, detailing, and, of course, wrapping. For those that may know, they have also wrapped Brad's (ADJUST) track car, and Drew's track car.

There is also a shop at Newton/Athleston area (manned by Robbie), but for the bigger jobs most is done at Lonsdale.

If you EVER need a service they offer, take your car there. I would go even as far to say Id trust them with the keys to my car over the weekend!!

And thanks for the link there - has given me some ideas! ;)

Why stop there if ya like tacky stickers, get some gay flames on the doors or even a dragon. Start taking drugs, now that would be worth the money ya wasted here. BTW tinted lenses are illegal bro. So ya better stay off the drugs cause the cops are gonna be all over you. Also Vinal stickers shink, so ya better keep it out the sun. Hey do mazda a favour and keep it in the shed !!!!

@Hirez - First of all, its Vinyl, not "Vinal" and Like I said, its ricey, but considering im the only one that needs to be happy with it your comments mean '0' to me.

As far as keeping it out the sun... I guess we can tell all those drug taking track guys with flames on their doors that their burning hot vinyl wrapped hoods are a waste of money... 3m vinyl Dinoc is durable for up 4 years and uses solvent-based inks that actually penetrate and soak into the vinyl so the inks will not fade like normal inks would. And sorry to further destroy your ignorant comment but when vinyl is heated it expands.... this is why they use a heat gun to stretch it into place......

Your Welcome! ;)

well said ae each to there own for me i think ur car looks tough, i think the problem with Hirez is that he cant afford to get it done and he just doesnt apprecate workmanship what i find good bout vinyl is that it keeps the oringal paint good

I worked at 3M in the R&D department in england, All 3M products made are for european climates where the ultra violet light isn't as harsh. So good luck with getting four years out of it. Now I develop carbon fibre products for the motor racing and medical industry. If it aint real it aint shit. You dont wear make up do ya??? You like dressing things up to look like a cheap tart.
