Can You Partially Paint Carbon Eyelids?

[Vik]

Hey guys, just bought a pair of CF eyelids for the R34.

Just realised that the end of the eyelids aren't gonna' match the front gaurd. Because it will match the hood which is CF but the front gaurd is White.

So is there a chance of painting just the end of the Eyelids.

I just recieved the eyelids today, and havent tried them on the car yet, But i will tonight and post some pics, (get my lil bro to hold it up) dont want to stick them on yet, want to make sure if im able to paint them or not or what it will look like.

And secondly, is there any place that fixes / repairs heat warp on CF hoofs. It looks like scratches but seems to be heat warp.

I'll post pics up this evening.

Cheers in advanced!

Hey

Yes you can paint over CF all you do is mask the area you dont wanna paint and then give the rest a quick sand with some 600 - 800 WD sand paper

just enough to roughen the surface abit so the paint sticks ( dont go too coarse or you will see the sanding marks through the paint) and then spray on the colour then the clear when its all dry you remove the masking tape and hey presto the end match the guards..

Need some more info on the heat warp. You shouldn't be getting any warping because any good carbon hood will have a UV resistant clear coating which will protect it.

I'll grab some pics, i got a feelng its not warp. I reckon it got hit or something and the previous owner doesnt want to admit it.

But tomorrow morning i will get some pics up so you can let me know please.
