FF Carbon and vinyl wrapping questions
Posted: Sat Jan 09, 2016 8:19 pm
Think of added some carbon bits to my R1200S, starting with the center tank panel. Does anyone have experience with FF Carbon ?

I like that you can custom order the panels to suit your preferences. Thinking of the matte finish with the twill weave.
Ultimate vision is to replace the front fairing, tank center, and rear side fairings. I will likely add some sort of graphics (maybe paint, but most likely vinyl) to small portions of the carbon and repaint or wrap the large side fairings with some design similar to the looks of the special edition HP2S.
After the graphics are applied, is it possible to add a clear vinyl wrap with a matte finish to prevent the edges of the graphics from peeling and to add a layer of protection? Will the satin or matte vinyl blur the graphics?
Here are some of my inspirational pics (my apologies for stealing someone's pics/ideas).
Main panels like this, and possible a HP2S style belly pan in the future:
Rear side graphics similar to this:
