F.I. - Carbon Fiber Scratched??

honestly man... from here they look like surface scratches that can be buffed out. When you rub across it with your fingernail lightly does it go into the scratch? Like can you really feel it or just barely?

you can really feel it. thats actually how i noticed it. I thought the carbon fiber was unwrapping or something. its very rough to the touch. i mean, its an exhaust that sits under the car. and you cant even see it from looking under unless you look under the right tire and towards the can, so im not making a huge deal out of it. just have no clue how it happened.. only thing i can think of is i did it washing it but to scratch it up that much seems odd...

unlikely that washing it would have caused scratches like that... especially if the water was clean and not used on something else first... even then it's unlikely.

If they are deep scratches and you want to get them fixed I would talk to Tony and find out what kind of resin was used on the carbon fiber and get just a little bit, brush it on, let it fill the scratches, wet sand and buff it out. Sounds like a lot of work, but I don't think it would be to bad if you took the cans off.

You don't want to sand it first due to the fact that you may get down to low and get into the carbon fiber. Just my .02 cents.
