Thumbs down If i was a infused carbon Ducati fender what would i look like?

CRAP LOL

just got this is the mail with a nice letter askimg me to try to fix the seems on this $200 new fender as they look like crap.

this fender is very light, very nice bends and not any bubbles. however, no clearcoat(ouch) and it looks stiff enough but a little pressure side to side and it makes a cracking sound(not good)

I am asked to put a nice clearcoat shine on it too, how nice. i get these weekly FWIW and it is nice to be able to give back and help people make their superior bought infused parts look better

I will not respond to this thread so fisherman go away this is just for looky value and i have no desire to slander the maker of the front fender either just showing the detail of the infusion

that's what happens when you buy crap...unfortunate really! That's where having a good kknowledge of composites would have helped to avoid getting stuck with a part like this... My guess is opp lol


Unfortunately you are making it sound like the problem was that they infused it, but the actual problem was that it was done by a shitty outfit more concerned with the bottom line and not customer satisfaction and good quality composites. It's pretty irresponsible of you to try and misinform the people that don't quite have a deep knowledge of composites and the process involved and steer them away form a process of infusion rather then the company that made the crap...

It was not the process that was faulty but the asshat making the part....
