Default First attempt a wrapping a shell.

Had a beat up FTW shell and had a go at a carbon wrap. will be trying again but you get the idea.

Are you doing it in one piece or multiple bits ? If you're doing it in multiples you might be able to put in inside, or is the back not the same colour ???

It looks like you're getting on fine, I might be able to offer some advice though. Warming it with a heat gun / hair dryer as you do it will help. Also if you can make it the same shape as the body, imagine it was something you were cutting out of a magazine when you were younger, then you'd fold along the dotted lines and glue tabs together, well if you can do something like that and create a template you should be able to do it all in one sheet.

Will be interested to see how it comes out.
