It's been a long time since I've seen references to this subject, but it's a really neat process that can be applied to lots of different surfaces on any bike. I like the carbon fiber look but don't want to pay for the real thing. I had some blah black panels done on my other bike, which I won't name, pictured below. It costs around $.35 a sq. inch which makes it comparable to paint, maybe even cheaper. There are lots of different patterns available from hearts to skulls to camouflage and even woodgrains. How about a burl-walnut dash? Lots of people want to color match trunk lids or panels but this might be a different approach.
There are local places springing up as they don't need a huge investment in equipment, some are probably better than others so it pays to check them out and see some completed work.
