I brought another bike a month ago thats all carbon and I was wondering if you could fix it up so it was as good as new without having to buy new parts

Better than that mate,took it pig-shooting with me and when the dogs had one baled up i just threw it in there with them and it came out all ready for clear coat.

Even after 5 rounds from an 06.
