Default Inner Faring Idea - Seeking Feedback
Got a great deal on an inner faring and cap from a forum member. Been wanting to get a faring to have it painted to match my 109th anniversary commemorative vivid black paint. Have since been exposed to hydro-graphics. Found a local guy to do both pieces in a carbon fiber pattern for $175.00. Thought it might help break up the never ending black.

What do you think?

Here's a pic of a similar fairing. May asked the guy doing it to tint it darer and make it more subtle than what's in the pic.

It's not all its cracked up to be. I've read that the 109th requires special SE109 dino/syn blend of oils and waxes made specifically for that model year. Very expensive.

I swear I've seen this whole thread before but all the posts have today's date on it.

Either the interwebs are screwy or I've been smoking crack again.
