a friend of a friend does this for a living and told me a few weeks back he,d do it cheap if i was interested

im dubious tbh will it look tacky? has any done this before?

Yes.

depends on the quality of the carbon look wrap and the skill of the person applying it. I have seen bikes with this and it can be done to look good but it can look awful if not done well

i have,nt seen any of his work myself but its his own buisness so id imagine he must be good at it to make any money

I've seen this done and if done correctly it looks awesome, I saw it last on a Jap4 / Tyga RGV 250 and it looked great. (Just like a winter test GP bike in full carbon and all black)

Don't forget the RC212V sticker to go with the fake carbon...

Seen this at work on pistonheads not asked him who did it for him but looks the dogs doo daas.
