Finally Finished. Carbon Fiber panels.

[SwitchBlind360]

Well, I had a little accident last fall that put a crack in my front fender. Rather than buying a new one or patching and respraying, I decided to wrap it in Carbon Fiber. Once I saw how good it looked I thought it would be nice to do a couple other pieces around the bike.

Since I do this for a living, I figured having a little bit of a show case on my bike and car would be a good idea, but this spring I got a little carried away.

It took forever getting everything to fit right, matching the weave, and making sure my hardcases would still fit and not bang it all up, but here we go! I really should have just stopped with the Fender and underseat piece. Well, at least its one of a kind. I'm starting to think now about respraying the rest of the body panels bright red to contrast the Carbon.

You showcase some fine work.

 

[gr8eyes]

Very nice. You know you are going to have to do 50 million pieces once evryone sees this. LOL

 

[twowheelnut]

Oh, my! Tasty! :good:

 

[MCML]

At last, a good way to cover Vito's handiwork!

 

[Gramps]

That is pretty damn cool!!

Great job SB. :clapping:

 

[SockMonkey]

Very tasty indeed! (As an aside, while I hear what you're saying about painting the remaining body panels red, I think all that CF would look really spectacular against the Granite Gray of the '08 AE with a few gold anodized accents. Think Ohlins fork.)

So, is this bike going to be at NAFO..?

 

[Joe]

I really like how it looks.

You did a great joe.

[brazos parker]

Excellent! You done good!

 

[Randy]

A bit confused on what I'm looking at. Are they actual CF pieces or is it stock tupperware wrapped in real or fake CF?

 

[topanga]

Ok seriously, I want to replace all my tupperware with carbon fiber now. Like right now.

 

[RTSR1/FJR]

I think it's Faux Carbon vinyl wrap. He referred to it as wrap. Either way, it looks cool!

 

[rnees]

WOW. Now that's pretty.

me want. :wub:

 

[Wild72]

Looky real nice :clapping:

I have been considering using the carbon fiber vinyl sheets for a couple of the panels on my AE. (Don't think I have the requisite skillset to do the real deal!).

Seeing your pics confirm I wanna do this, but do it right.

Let us know when your website is ready for online ordering...

If you decide to do this for other FJR owners, let me know, I would definately like to get in on it.

 

[Joe2Lmaker]

I like it.

 

[GunMD]

That looks great. You did a great job (either that or you only took photos of the good areas).
