Carbon Fiber and Matte clear coat

Well, I can't really disclose too much but I'm checking to see the interest in carbon fiber products being offered in a matte clear finish, rather then the gloss finish. If you have no idea what I'm talking about here are some pictures of our 350z project. The matte clear gives it a dry carbon fiber look...









This would be done exclusively through our shop. Please let us know your opinions !

Seibon released their dry carbon series for the 350z at SEMA this year but it's not for sale yet. The closest thing your going to see to dry carbon, as far as weight reduction, is the mastergrade vacuum infused parts.

No, I think it has to do with the lighting and that the pictures were taken right after a 600 mile road trip. In person, they all look the same.

Sorry, but this looks like sh*t to me. It looks too much like primer.
