Question Carbon Fiber nose ring?

I recently cracked my front chrome ring when trying to remove it so I could plastidip it and now it is fully broken on the right side.

I've seen a carbon fiber replacement on someone's ra before. Anyone know where I could buy one? I think I saw it on MTZL's thread.

Google's search results are failing me so hopefully someone knows.

Never heard of any aftermarket nose rings, but it might be out there.. There's so much random crap for sale.. If not, I'd find somebody who works with CF, and try to have them wrap/repair it..

I cracked my front nose trim ring years ago into multiple pcs. I just ordered a sheet of 3M Dinoc carbon fiber looking vynal wrap and did it myself. Cost me about 65 - 75 bucks in total and that's with shipping up here to Canada. Chances are you could find something cheaper.

the carbon fiber wrap sounds like a good option. I'm not too confident in my ability to make it look good haha but I might give that a go

I broke mine in 4 places. Cracked completely. Would have lost a couple pieces if it wasn't plasti-dipped together lol.

I just put a little piece of fiberglass on the back side of each crack. Worked perfectly.

I've seen the guy with the carbon fiber one. He wrapped/molded over it in real carbon fiber.
