looks cool Ian.

I've got a Veilside (from Japan) high-rise multi rake CF wing back in Mo. that I've considered shipping out here in Ca.

I think it will compliment the other CF parts as they go on.9 Once I lower the car etc. of course.

Yes, contacted Varis.
None of their products are clear coated.
Installation guide recommends it.

I talk to a guy at the bodyshop who does clear coat. He say I might be better of leaving it as is, and apply wax on it. Cuz clear coat will crack putting layers of wax on it should protect it. Please let me know if u think otherwise.

My guy didn't say anything about cracking but suggested it wasn't really necessary, just use a sealant.

Gentlemen....if this part came only with a clear gel-coat, you must spray it with a UV stable automotive clear at least if its to be out in the direct sunlight and you wish to keep it from turning yellow.

Just got it back from the paint shop.
The clear definitely makes a difference.
It was great before, but now it really pops!
