i wonder what the stillen lip would look like in CF

Always wondered how it would look wrapped in Carbon fiber. Might make it more rigged and prevent it from sagging to. any thoughts?

Would probably look pretty good

I imagine with the amount of resin you would coat it in to have it nice and glossy, I'm sure it will be more rigid.

Not sure how bad the Stillen droop is though lol

yes it is. I don't know how rhino liner is relevant to the OP though. I hope you are not suggesting rhino lining anything on the Z...

Anyways... wrapping the stillen lip has never been done before that my limited knowledge is aware of, so by all means do it! Pics if you do too...
