  • Carbon fiber body wraps

    Came across this today,I thought it would look really cool!I layed my bike down a week ago and instead of replacing the fairing or painting it and hoping I get the color to match.I thought this might be a quicker,cheaper way to make the bike look badass again!Anyone wanna give their 2 cents?My husband said it looks like alot of work,I agree but man would it look sick!!

      You're still gonna have to do all the prep work, so unless you just really want the cf look you're much better off spending 30 bucks on some spray paint and just painting the whole bike.
      90% of motorcycle forum members do not have a service manual for their bike.

        We got the stuff to do the body work,I just think this would be saweeeeett!!
        I admit it's probably going to be labor intensive,but the finished product will look awesome!!

        Maybe just start small and do the lower fairings?See how it goes,f it is a pain the beep then I don't have to do anymore and I can paint the rest.

          after spending my time unsuccessfully trying to wrap some CF vinils for some time i figure out it is easier to just lay a real cf layer over the pieces and according to the 3M prices, in the end the price wasnt higher at all but theres a huge difference in the look at end. The 3M have nothing to do with real carbon fiber shine

            Ditto Dany Cya I make stuff out of real carbon everyday. Real carbon overlays are easy and they look really good.
