Hey I was wondering if it is possible to paint a carbon fiber wing? I kno it is possible..But would the paint stay on it like it would on fiberglass? Cause there is a specific wing I really like but they only make it in carbon fiber..and black wouldnt match the car..so I want to paint it to match. thanks

well I guess if you could take some sandpaper to it and give the surface some texture rather then smooth the paint should be able to stick to it.

Yeah you can sand it down and paint it. Itll adhere just life the fiberglass ones but I have to side with these guys on this one - DONT DO IT! Wingless Civics are the best!
