I talked to duane about painting carbon fiber and he said its exactly the same as painting anything else. I believe he said he puts 7 layers of clearcoat on each piece before it leaves him.

lots of clear. i guess i frazed that wrong. i myself don't want to buy a carbon fiber one just to paint it. plus, my guess. carbon fiber would be more exspensive.

I only suggested the cfx one because he said he'd like to buy an aftermarket one. :)

When you look at the dealer price vs. the CFX one, the CFX one isn't too bad. I thnk the 70 bucks more the CFX one costs is very little for a nicer lip.

If your stock one is just bent and not broken, there's a chance you can straighten it out by pulling it off and straightening the metal bracket that holds it on. It has worked well for some people. :)
