It's not, I have the same carbon wrap and it is super hard to get it on the smaller ridges properly.  I think using a heat gun could help but when I tried it made the rest look bad

 

[sstinger77]

I dunno about that carbon wrap. Takes a lot away from the shoe.

Wrap looks a lot better than the Skyposites though.

 

[hustlinflip]

^ Skyposites released with a carbon look, these foams were wrapped.

U&C - great collection dude

Matt - sick pickups, just got a pair of those flights myself for a project

Los - blue soles look great

not too bad of a job with the carbon wrap....still doesn't quite cut it considering the grooves aren't visible. that was my concern when i bought the wrap and just scrapped the idea until i could figure out how to make it more pliable to get into the grooves.

def looks better than the skyposites though

That was my problem too, did you try using a heat gun?  I heated mine up and it worked somewhat but it looked like crap still

yea i used a heat gun and it still didn't work out for me. the front of the shoe was the first place i tried it with knowing it was going to make or break the whole project if those grooves wouldn't show through the wrap. i just couldn't get it to form to the shape without cutting into it

....only wasted a small amount of wrap, i'm thinking of trying it on a different model with less grooves that could be better defined through the wrap. just need to find the damn shoe

 

[l knicks fresh knick l]

wait what?......... those CF foams

 

[got shoes]

those are clean, would buy instantly. Take away from the shoe a little bit, but so what. They are something different

 

[hustlinflip]

Thanks for the love guys!

Justin, maybe some FP3's would do the trick? I think it would be trippy to see a CF body with the holograms.
