Matte is quoted per order: select it to request a price for your car. Our standard finish already meets the industry standard for engine bay parts, with a heat-resistant clear coat on the outer layer, because the engine bay runs hotter than anywhere outside the vehicle and heat is what makes a clear coat yellow over time. On Gloss you can also add our \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/carbonxtrem.com\/pages\/dry-carbon-vs-wet-carbon-what-s-the-difference#full-thermal-clear-coat\"\u003eFull Thermal Clear Coat\u003c\/a\u003e, where the heat-resistant formulation runs through every layer rather than the outer one alone, the most durable finish we offer for the bay.

The engine cover is made from 3K prepreg carbon fiber, also known as dry carbon, and cured under pressure in an autoclave, the same method behind OEM and motorsport parts, not the hand-laid carbon that is sold for less and shows its shortcuts up close. The pressure drives the air out of the layup, so the weave stays tight and even and the part is light and dimensionally stable. The few fine surface pinholes any weave can leave are filled before the clear coat goes on, far fewer than a hand-laid part needs.
