Teaser pics from my Hydro-Dipper

[F6B-RICH]

My F6B parts are ready for pickup from the Hydro-Dipper.He sent over some pics.The front cowl is sick it looks like a Alien face.Should look awesome with the lights I have that go behind the cowl it will look like eyes.I love the way he ghosted in the carbon fiber .batman-smilie.

If you don't mind saying, how much does that cost?

[chipmaker]

I want to hear about the durability.

I want to hear about the durability.

I has 2-3 coats of clear coat.So I figure it is going to hold up good .batman-smilie.

Most of the smaller pieces are around $50-$100.The fender was around $125-$150 but the front cowl which is the biggest piece probably around $200.The Honda paint is removed so there is some good prep time they need to do before they dip and paint the piece .batman-smilie.


As a side note this painter/dipper said my Honda F6B paint is NOT soft like so many people are complaining about.

Since it was Winter I told him not to rush as my bike was all apart.If he is just doing my parts probably like 4-5 days if that .batman-smilie.

The Hydro dipping process is really just paint printed on a film. After the pattern is applied it is cleared so it should be as resilient as any good paint job. It is not a vinyl wrap.

I picked up my F6B body parts today and got some more info.My guy strips all the Honda paint off.Sprays a black base coat before he Hydro-dips the carbon fiber pattern.Then he blends/ghosts in the carbon fiber into the black so there are no straight carbon fiber lines.Applied 7 clear coats in which he said he wet sanded between some/all the clear coats I can't remember what he exactly said about the sanding.Whatever he did I like it a lot .batman-smilie.

Sims Designs.You can find him on Facebook and the internet.I put the pieces back on today and it looks killer.I am very very happy by the way it turned out.I was worried the carbon fiber was going to over power the black but that is not the case.Just enough carbon fiber to mix in with the black bike.Next winter I will look into maybe the side covers by the seat and maybe the saddlebag doors to be dipped also in the carbon fiber print .batman-smilie.
