    my carbon fiber hood needs to be re-finished the clearcoat is getting haazy. i'm wondering if anyone knows any shops that they have had good expierences with, or know of any places that deal with carbon fiber products.

    I'm also interested if anyone knows of any good general auto paint shops, cause that will also be of help.

    any suggestions are apperciated. thanks guys

    i'm in the same situation should i re clear coated it, paint it, or paint only the sides(b5). i can't decide. but either way i need to find someone who can do it.

    wasn't there a guyon here awhile back that work at a shop that was making carbon fiber parts? anyone check that out?

    Try AutoCraft in Burlingame. Everyone there is iCar certified. Expensive, but great work.
