Can we do a compassion of your car vs someone with it...

Just go poor some water over the hood record it... I'll do the same... we shall see

No, I use an amazing sealant...far better than Opticoat. Even so, it won't prevent scratching like you're claiming here and neither will Opticoat. They each will help prevent against very small surface scratches but if something sharp or abrasive touches these panels there is nothing you can do. People get so hyped about that product thinking its "protecting against rock chips" and other dumb claims that just isn't possible by any type of sealant or wax.

As far as the water test goes, I'd take that challenge any day of the week. My car and its paint are meticulously maintained.

This is the look I am going after. It is a top tube from a carbon MTB.

So...just UD carbon.

djliquidsteele · 05-05-2013, 09:56 AM

Yeah, they said they were unable to do it. Apparently you have to heat UD carbon for some reason. IDK

P.s. I know the A/C rings are black but the part wasn't ready when we took the pics but i will have the pics of the rings in carbon for you soon so you can see the whole interior. All the silver pieces changed into carbon fiber.

What shift knob are you using on your A/T?? Looks killer!
