I have a erebuni carbon hood (racing style). A couple of months ago i saw a spot on the left side of the hood that had some bubbles under clearcoat. It has not been that big of a deal , but recently after a hard rain the clarcoat started to peel off, and ever since then it has went fron an area the size a Quarter to the size of 2 softballs. It just looks really bad. What i was wondering is...... Does the carbon fiber have a clearcoat? like the car does? I work at a body shop and have come into situations where the clear is flaking off, and in that situation i would just strip the paint off or feather edge the clear coat out and repaint it. But i have no experience with carbon fiber so i'm not sure what to do?

 

erebuni is garbage quality......you get what you pay for....i have had my hood almost 3 years with little issues

 

Have no probs with my hood, not had it for years but still good.

 

almost 1yr old, still looks good.

 

I had a seibon KS carbon fiber hood before this one and it started to crack. Plus a lot of people in the area had the same hood. So I sold the seibon and went with the erebuni, because i had not seen any one else with this hood. Now i wish i would have just stuck with the cracked seibon! A few small cracks looks a lot better that what i have now.

I agree you get what You pay for!

 

what do you mean it started to crack? Where were the cracks, and how did they form?

 

The cracks were around one of the vents on the right side. I don't know how they formed. I never slammed it hard or abused it.
