What do you guys think of GM's process for clear coating exposed carbon fiber on the new Corvette ZR1.  How do you guys thinks this differs from standard clear coat used by some aftermarket companies?


Quote from MotorTrend:

"The fenders, hood inner and outer panels, roof panel, and C-pillar roof bar are carbon fiber, the tooling for which caps production at 2000 per year. The fibers are visible on the roof and hood inner, and to prevent ultraviolet light from degrading them a special additive costing over $60,000/gallon (!) is added at three-percent concentration in the thin clear-coat layer ($2000/gallon)."
