Matt Or Gloss?

  1. Hi Guys, looking to put a bit of carbon on the 899, looking at conquest carbon, hugger, key guard, suspension guard, front fender, chain guard and heal guards, 2 questions:
    Does anyone have experience of the products from conquest
    What's going to look better matt or gloss
    Thanks

  2. I think gloss carbon will look better tbf, most seem happy with conquest carbon but I must admit I haven't tried them. I have dealt with them and was very impressed with their service but when I ordered something it was out of stock (not normal)

  3. I realize this is an old topic. However, you can always turn gloss into matte carbon. Just have your neighborhood bodywork guy hook you up, I almost left mine matte when getting the fairings done. [​IMG]

  4. Don't really like carbon but matte looks better in my opinion....

    Gloss carbon has been done to death.....

  5. It was definitely a hard choice. On the plus side, the painter said it would be mega easy to go matte if I decide to do that instead. Just gotta wetland it down to the clear and then reseal it.

  6. I had a load of gloss carbon on my Hyper 1100 when I got it and I took it all off and sold it....

    Now if it was Carbon Kevlar I would have kept it on...
