Polished forks today!

Post by madgazman »

Hey Guys

Since i've had my bike the front forks had carbon fibre film wrapped on them, i always thought it looked really cheap, almost like an off the shelf Halfords :down:

Well happy with the results :grin: :grin: :grin: took about 5 - 6 hours in total and about 3-4 beers :lol: tried to get them to match the chassis but think they have a more chrome like look.

what do you guys think?

Big improvement, good work.

Now they make the chipped paint on your wheel look bad. It's an endless cycle!
