Cracked matte carbon fiber resin and delamination
Hi guys, I just purchased a 2009 SL63 IWC edition. The matte carbon fiber trim has hair line cracks and adhesive failure from panel. Does anyone have experience fixing the crack and what adhesive to use. Thanks

its more than a crack, its damage. It doesnt break on its own. The parts that are pulling up probably wont reglue because of their bowing. You might try epoxy but may not work. I would buy a new set of cf. Ive seen some sets on ebay sell for 1200 etc. Then have it matte cleared at a body shop.
Thats going to be your best bet
