    Carbonfibre for my Buell's

    What do you guys think about carbonfibre, should i go with gloss or matt finish on it?
    Just looking for some feedback because i can't make up my mind, so what do have to say.

    IMO.
    If I'm going to use it as a style highlight, I would use a matte and only for pieces where an honest weight savings would be understandable. Racey-McRacer style

    I was leaning towards satin carbon, but i may just have to do one satin and the other one gloss. Or maybe i should just sell it and get another rescue puppy.

    I think I will go for the glossy/matt carbon parts but that will have to wait for now, i need to get my green xb9 ready for the road first. So I'm thinking to do the panels later this year I hope.
