Will this interfere with my trunk lid at full extension?

The Ghost style is designed with a low-profile footprint to minimize trunk clearance issues. Verify mounting hole pattern alignment with your vehicle's existing fastener locations before installation to ensure proper fitment and panel clearance.

Does the carbon fiber need protection from UV exposure?

Yes. Apply a UV-protective clear coat after sanding and prepping the surface. This protects the carbon weave from fading and prevents resin degradation over time. A quality automotive clear coat is essential for long-term durability.

How should I prepare the surface before final finishing?

Sand the carbon fiber with fine-grit paper to dull the surface and improve adhesion for primer and paint. Clean thoroughly to remove all dust and contaminants before applying your chosen topcoat system.
