Invisitape on a Rail carbon frame

[Timn1243]

Has anyone had invisitape protector fitted to their Rail 9.8, how does it cover over the raised paint areas? I have been told it looks abit messy.

I've fitted Chameleonskin to my carbon framed powerfly lt9.7 and the kit looks good. Fiddly to fit but rewarding when finished

What a great looking bike. Nice work. About 2 hours to install?

Bit late but if it helps I’ve just invisiframed a phase purple 9.8. Do you still have any questions?

My concern was the difference in height when it goes from black to the red where there could possibly be an air gaps.

There’s a close up of my 9.9 battery when I did it. Can see it if you look close, but it’s barely visible from a distance.
As time goes one, it’ll dry out and become even less obvious.
Don’t have the bike anymore, so can’t tell you what it looks like now!

It’s definitely lost some of the aesthetic/texture where gloss paint meets raw carbon. I opted for the gloss/matte kit, it looks okay but it’s difficult to get the frame protected without losing the texture.
I’m not sure useful these images will be but they show the before and after:
