took a break from the Apocalypse today to install my genuine SARD wing.

First a few months ago I discoved the Matte finish on my Siebon CF parts was mainly a matte type clearcoat . Underneath revealed a gloss finish. So I wetsanded 2000 grit then compounded my truck to try to match the gloss of the new wing.

Matte dry carbon look Before



After wetsand and compound


Installed - the weave on the Sard is a little bit different but with them being both glossy there isn't much contrast



Did add some weight obviously. Ft86speedfactory list the knockoff sard at 5.5lbs. The wing itself on mine was 5.5, 7.5 with the hardware included



New weight = 2346.5lbs



Next goal is to wetsand/polish the rest of the Carbon on the car, and still working on underbody aero
