Re: CARBON FIBRE
I think you should do the fender extender as well, even though its carbon already, not a match for what you've done. You have more patience than me, I couldn't be arsed with that ( unless I'd binned the bike or something ). Oh, and sorry, but those mirrors look a bit pony, do they pick up sky or so...

Cheers for the kind words. Almost done now, half the belly pan to do, then the rear fairing and then the dreaded tank!

Re: CARBON FIBRE
Here is a photo of some of the imperfection as promised. It's only noticeable if you get really close! :? http://i1328.photobucket.com/albums/w533/shinn281/20130624_145836_zps0ab30cbf.jpg And here is the work I've done today, http://i1328.photobucket.com/albums/w533/shinn281/20130624_184005_zpsd5fa5...

Re: CARBON FIBRE
Just as an alternative have you seen this printing technique for the difficult bits - http://www.gumtree.com/p/cars-vans-motorbikes/hydrographics-water-transfer-printing/1022905981 might be useful for the complex bits.

Re: CARBON FIBRE
Yeah that does look good. How about taking some close up pics to show what the imperfections are like? The reason I ask is that if they aren't that bad, I bet a few more people will have a go at this. I think Benny was talking about buying some of this stuff at one point, maybe he even did, I can't...

Re: CARBON FIBRE
Thanks for all the positive comments, I think it looks pretty good just a few small imperfections! Here's a photo of what I managed to get done today before having to go to work, if you look closely at the front mudguard you can see some creases, so depending on how much wrap I have left at the end,...

Re: CARBON FIBRE
Finally the carbon fibre wrap turned up today and I had my first go! I think it looks pretty good and only took 30mins! What do you guys think? http://i1328.photobucket.com/albums/w533/shinn281/20130621_153208_zps799751c7.jpg http://i1328.photobucket.com/albums/w533/shinn281/20130621_153202_zps1b4b2...
