Some people say they love the look of stock rails on their Onewheels. Each scratch is earned, serving as a reminder of rides past. While this is great and the look of well-loved Onewheel rails has its appeal, I really like how the DIY Vinyl Wrap turned out on my Onewheel Plus. Because of this, it is time I do DIY Carbon Fibre Vinyl Wrap For My Onewheel Pint.
DIY Carbon Fibre Vinyl Wrap For My Onewheel Pint
Onewheel Pint Vinyl Wrap Color Scheme
I always planned to Vinyl Wrap my new Onewheel Pint in the leftover Carbon fiber vinyl from my Onewheel Plus Makeover. So to help keep with my black and gold color scheme I opted for the mustard color Fender when ordering from Onewheel.com. 
The Tools Needed To DIY Vinyl Wrap A Onewheel Pint
- Vivid Carbon Fibre Vinyl Wrap
- Vinyl Wrap Tool Kit
- Light Solvent
- Shop Rags
- Basic Hand Tools
Cleaning Up The Onewheel Pint Rails
Unlike the original Onewheel Plus Rails which are anodized, the Onewheel Pint Rails are painted. Because of this, care needs to be taken when using a solvent to clean up the rails. Strong solvents will take the paint right off. (I found this out the hard way)

Onewheel Pint Rail Guards VS The Float Life Pint Sidekicks VS EIGHT2TEN Rail Guards
At the time of ordering my Onewheel Pint, there was no third-party option for Rail Protection. Because of this, I decided to add a set of the Onewheel Pint Rail Guards to my order. Since then, both EIGHT2TEN and The Float Life have brought out a Pint Version of their well-known stick on rail protection.
The Finished Product
I have to say I am happy with how it turned out. I actually really like the one-piece look of the Genuine Pint Rail Guards. And the texture of the faux Carbon Fibre shows through nicely! Let’s wait and see how they hold up against the third party version.
