I'm thinking about doing this to my frame but I'm afraid the heat will get to it. Do you think it will affect it at all?

Not sure what I would recommend is getting a sample and testing it I was considering using this for my tank but opted for the real stuff.

Yes... I had the air covers wrapped on my bike and the AZ sun made it bubble up like crazy. I ended up removing it even though it looked awesome

I used the good 3M stuff also by the way.

I ended up getting the real deal a couple of months ago on ebay. Some seller had 10 available and sold out pretty quick. Its pricey at $150 but I love the carbon fiber look.

Sweet ride bro. How easy was the install? I'm pretty sure its more complicated than the vinyl application lol. But well worth it I can imagine.

actually the install was quite simple. remove both fairings and 2 allen head bolts per ram air cover and install in reverse order. The ram air overs were a complete replacement of the originals.
