Scuffed Heel Protectors
My heel protectors are getting quite badly scuffed and looking a bit tired now. I'm sure I read about carbon fibre covers you can get as I don't want to go down the mirror finish polishing route. Any info much appreciated.

Re: Scuffed Heel Protectors
IMO I think that CF parts are very tacky (not on all bikes, I rather like the CF parts on the Gixxers). Why not spray them with Hammerite as a cheaper/less hassle option to polishing or get them powder coated - more expensive option, but probably at the same cost of buying the CF heel plates?
Just my thoughts. Chin |

The CF can wear as well, and could end up looking rubbish to

Drill them out! Then you won't notice the scuffing and they look better anyway!
