Sytner (Sheffield) bodyshop did mine and although not damaged only stone chipped lacquer I gave them the instructions from link on here and they did a super job. Chartwells Derby are capable too as they have top carbon guy who rebuilds damaged front ends of Fezzas etc.. So it is possible.Originally posted by bryceIm joking. But has anyone had success in the refurb of them?

Its not voodoo magic.
However, not over sanding is a skill (machine sanding can go straight thru the CF) and also applying the right lacquer isn't always done.
I should know!:whistle:

Sticky Mickey the ducati race carbon King did mine.
Who in their right mind, would machine sand a small trim like that:whistle:
Will had a mate of ours do his full ralliart carbon front splitter on his Evo, it looked better than it was when new:thumbs:

I can confirm they do a great job too. They repaired a couple of stone chips on my roof as well as making a set of splitters look like new again whilst repairing a completely fooked set to be a spare track day set.Originally posted by shimmy View PostI spoke to Simpsons today about this and as they now have a paint shop and spray booth plus a specialist painter who knows Carbon Fibre they say the can do these easy peasey and have done a few alread with no issues.:thumbs:
Highly recommended :thumbs:
