Looks great. For the caliper, is it the case that you only re-cleared it?

yes, base coat was good, just flaking clear in a few spots. scraped off and loose clear coat and sanded the edges to feather. then hit with some more clear. not perfect, but looks 100% better.

carbon fiber trim pieces

finished hydro-dipping the door trim pieces. now to do the center console. I went with black on black for a more subtle look. I thought the silver on black etc.. looked too intense. I also played around with the car color (guards red) as the base color. I could see that would look good, just not for me. although, I am tempted to do that for the small piece on the shifter.




so glossy it is hard to get a good pic.




full resolution pics.
