Mine's CF add on wing
1 Attachment(s)
First I could not be any more disappointed in the workmanship of the Mine's CF wing.
When it first arrived, the inner edges were very roughly cut and they didn't even bother to put clear coat on it. It also had scratches and bubbles. I waited over 2 months to get these and I wasn't going to wait another 2 months to get this one replaced so I just decided to keep it. It's been a little over 2 months since the purchase and it has started to form a haze on the inner parts of the wing. Is this something that can be fixed or should I have them replace this? You can clearly see the white part where they didn't clearcoat...:shakes head: I'm afraid that the haze will only get worse. |
And thats an authentic mines addon spoiler?
|
Yup
|
I think all owners of this add-on have this problem.
|
Any way to prevent it from getting worse?

Guess I'm glad I didn't order the authentic one. For 600+ dollars i'd be pissed. |
The only real way to fix this would be to sand the oxidation off, then clear coat with a quality automotive clear.

Good god that looks like SHI*

I had similar issues with Top Secret front lip. LOL
JDM what! |
I tried polishing it but didn't work. Guess I'm going to have to get this re-cleared. I think that's what simota did. So disappointed...
first time I've been disappointed with a jdm product. |
I've had my Mine's cf wing and frt. lip on for a few years now and the white hazing began almost immediately on the lip, not so much on the wing. The cf seams and joins were kinda sub-par as well. Hard to continue giving these guys support.
I decided to try replica cf parts on my other vehicle, and the quality and durability was top notch for much less money. |
I will suggest just sand it down nicely with 1500/2000 grit paper then clearcoat with dupont 3800 clearcoat (we use it as it blocks UVA & UVB)
Most of the companies dont offer clear coat as its an additional job of sanding the piece then clear coating more like painting then buffing and polishing it. |
