hey guys, I have a 06 ppw with a seibon front lip made outta carbon fiber. Well the other day I hit a turtle driving onto the on ramp on 408. Needless to say the turtle won. He put a nice crack on my front lip. The carbon fiber is still ok but the clear coat is cracked and chipped. Does anybody know of a body shop in town that can fix this or does anybody know of anybody that has some expertise in repairing this. Also is it even possible to fix it. thanks for any help.

P.S. by the way the turtle walked away after that...he was probably laughing at me...

Ouch!!!


You should have kept the turtle as a pet in payment for the damages

 

Damn turtles... i know Lou and a few people got work done by kito painting there Z's and stuff.. should be able to fix that by wet sanding the clear coat off to just about the carbon fiber and re-clear coating it.. but i know nothing about body work or painting...lol...

 

Carbon is really tough to save. Quito wont touch carbon fiber because it is really tough to work with. I think Big Rich uses First Class Auto not sure though and they know about Carbon Fiber. Maybe he will chime in or even Manny is a master of cf too.

 

Yeah i heard carbon was really tough to work on...I read in the exterior/interior forum that some guy fixed it on his on...he repatched and recleared it. just wondering if anyone local can do it

 

Bring it with you to the next meet so I can take a look at.

 

i'll try to show up on sataurday...what time's the meet?

 

I believe 8:30-9
