Rekognize · February 24th, 2013, 07:59 PM

I wrapped my upper and lower fairing in 3M Scotchprint CF.
Here's the result:

They were at least nice enough to leave me a pair of stands

Looks real good on the ebony bike. How hard was it to make the vinyl conform to the weird angles on the fairings?

S1att3r · February 24th, 2013, 08:31 PM

I think you need to do the very bottom fairings also.

I did the bottom as well, it's just not visible from the camera angle.

It's pretty easy. You just need a heat gun or hair dryer and a lot of patience.

S1att3r · February 24th, 2013, 10:04 PM

You wrapped right over the Kawasaki decals.

You can't tell when it's mounted on the bike. Those kawi decals aint cheap, yo.

Looks good

Think I'd ditch that ABS sticker tho.

JusticeWH · February 25th, 2013, 07:34 AM

Pretty!
I definately dont have enough patience to do that, nice job

as far as fake cf goes, it looks quite nice

beerhalffull · February 25th, 2013, 08:23 AM

Looks amazing. Please post more pics if you have them.

S1att3r · February 25th, 2013, 02:40 PM

Now do the whole bike so you can have the first cf 300

That thing looks better in each image.

I love CF and your bike doesn't disappoint.

I have a true CF hood on my 96' Stratus which started my obsession with the stuff.

Hey J, I'm from Guelph, ON and just picked up my 300 this weekend. I'm really interested in ordering the 3M cf tape and doing this, but was wondering if you were willing to give me a hand with it if I rode down to your place this summer? I probably won't do it until later in the summer, once I've done my first service and put some money back in the bank. Let me know if you are willing to meet up with me later this summer. I'm really loving your blog so far and you have some amazing ideas! I have the woodcraft clip ons as well, they are so sweet! Looking to do CF wrap, fender eliminator and possibly dkmoto headlights if they are going to be doing a group buy this summer... Although I am try to see if I can't get something custom done with my own ideas using my headlight casing. Hope to chat with you soon!

Alim.

I am thinking of wrapping the midsection of my front fairing instead of
trying to repaint it...

chris21er · May 29th, 2013, 12:25 PM

Looks awsome....hhuummmm how about the whole bike CF???

massacremasses · May 29th, 2013, 02:58 PM

I forgot all about CF wrap.... Thank you for reminding me. I might do this instead of painting my bike a different color.

hexstylee · June 25th, 2013, 12:35 AM

slickrick · October 29th, 2013, 07:12 PM

Going to wrap the upper and lower fairings on the white ninja in a week or so. It should stand out pretty well. I'll post pictures once it's done.
