I already had the Carbon Fiber cloth. The paint was the most expensive part. Everything all together was probably an additional 80-100

Nice write-up and VERY nice work.

I've been wondering about fixing some of the damage that I've done to my V1 lip. I don't have any breaks, just a lot of resin damage.
I was thinking about chipping/cracking the resin away to have a larger base to put new resin. Would that work or am I causing more problems? I'm just wondering how the resins will fill in. If they'll be "invisible" or just look like filled in cracks?

I missed this thread the first time around, but enormous props on your work. Absolutely ridiculous. There is no way I wouldn't have just bought new ones, but you took on a major challenge and came out on top. Congrats and good luck on the sale!
