Finally installed my Mint Blue C/F
I had the bottom side painted and the CF only shows on the top. Different huh?
I got the wing on Ebay for $70 damaged from Mint Blue USA. It was a early prototype that they got in. I got it repaired painted and installed my my body shop sponsor Creative Classics Restoration and Fabrication here in KC.

Like it, and I'm not normally a fan of C/F.
Was curious, did the inspiration for the painting half come from having to cover up the damage repair work? Whatever it was, works really well.

"yeah it's C/F and I painted it because I don't really like C/F." instead of "hey look at me I have carbon fiber everything on my car!"
It did also cover up the crack in the seam that ran the entire spanse of the wing. There are still some really small flaws in the top edge surface of the wing in the resin which is almost impossible to repair. I may just go ahead and paint the entire thing, but its kind of cool to see people look at it from the side and the rear and then up close they are like "oh sh*t that's carbon fiber"
