A lot of folks that do Carbon Fiber hoods and trunks do clear coat it. I will be doing that to mine.

One thing I would suggest, since we clear it for you already you should hold on to that. We offer a 1 year limited warranty on our clear coat. From chipping or fading. Wait till the 11th month to spend money on re-clearing it.

This is why I hate ups. It said my trunk was out for delivery at 10 am. Well it's 5:30 pm and I haven't seen a truck or heard the doorbell. I bet any money that tomorrow it will say first attempt failed.

I'm a little pissed since I'm leaving for the weekend tomorrow and won't be back til Monday. I pushed back my schedule to make sure I was home when it showed up.

Just my little rant since my whole day was a right off waiting for this to come!

It should already say first attempt failed if they did try to deliver it.

The last 5 deliveries that were scheduled to get here on a Friday didn't get here. They don't do Friday.

Lol I would have at least heard the doorbell! I blame ups. If it was in transit for delivery at 10 am, it should have shown up by now. I've had the first and second attempt show up on the same update. The drivers are less than impeccable plus the guy who delivers to my corner of the city barely speaks english

That's great news!! IIRC VIS products don't come clear coated so maybe that's why I assumed they all csme uncleared.

But Kudos to you guys for going the extra mile!

You gotta factor in the new mold making process. That alone takes a week or two.
