Hydro-Dipping?

[Ventureless]

So I just got a Reckless fairing for my new to me RSTD Midnight. The fairing came black gelcoated. The plan was that when the gelcoat started to fade, I would get it painted and clear coated. Well today our warehouse manager brought in some parts he had hydro dipped. They looked incredible. Just like paint and were even clear-coated afterwards. I couldn't even tell it wasn't paint. The shop locally where he had it done guarantees it for life from fading and peeling. That seems like a great deal. So now I might go ahead and do the fairing. Cost would be roughly $100.

 

So to my questions:

 

Has anyone done any parts with hydro dipping and if so how has it held up?

 

I have a 2006 Midnight RSTD so everything is black. If I do this, I was planning on just going straight black on the fairing to match. Well looking at the website, I really like the carbon fiber film. So would a carbon fiber fairing look good on the rest of teh black bike?

Now think how cool the bike would look with everything carbon fiber dipped.........

I thought about it, but I just got the bike and got it almost the way that I want it so I don't want to rip it apart yet to have everything done. I want to ride!!!!!!!
