Best Carbon Fiber Parts for Ducati Streetfighter V4

The best carbon fiber parts for the Ducati Streetfighter V4 combine measurable weight savings with precise OEM-matched fitment. For 2020-2024 V4 and V4 S models, the highest-impact upgrades are the front fender, tank cover, main chassis frame cover, and heel guard — all available in twill or plain weave with a proprietary UV-resistant coating that protects the weave from sun-ray yellowing.

What carbon fiber parts should you buy first for the Streetfighter V4?

Start with the parts that give the biggest visual and weight return for the money. In order of impact for the 2020-2024 Streetfighter V4/V4 S:

• Front fender — the most visible carbon upgrade and a straightforward bolt-on over the OEM mudguard.
• Tank cover — large, high-visibility surface that transforms the bike's profile.
• Main chassis frame cover — closes off the exposed frame area for a finished, factory-superbike look.
• Heel guard covers — small, high-wear parts that protect painted surfaces while adding weave detail.

Which front fender fits the Streetfighter V4?

Bestem's carbon front fender fits the 2020-2024 Streetfighter V4/V4 S (and 2022-2024 Streetfighter V2). It's offered in three finishes so you can match the rest of your bodywork:

• Plain weave, matte finish (SKU CBDU-V4-FFD-F)
• Plain weave, glossy finish (SKU CBDU-V4-FFD)
• Twill weave, glossy finish (SKU CBDU-V4-FFD-T)

Twill (the 2x2 diagonal weave) reads as the classic "carbon look," while plain weave gives a tighter, more uniform checkerboard. Both use pre-preg carbon over the OEM mounting points, so the fender reuses the factory hardware.

What about the tank cover and frame cover?

The Streetfighter V4/V4 S tank cover (SKU CBDU-STFTV4-TKC) fits 2020-2022 models and replaces the plastic tank panel with a large carbon surface. For the frame, the main chassis frame cover (SKU CBDU-V4-MCFC) fits 2020-2024 Streetfighter V4/V4 S and the 2018-2024 Panigale V4/S. The matte heel guard cover (SKU CBDU-STFTV4-HGD-F) rounds out the set.

Do carbon fiber fairings turn yellow over time?

Yellowing is the single most common defect riders see on carbon fiber: the clear coat ambers and clouds as UV exposure breaks it down. This is where the coating matters more than the weave. Bestem uses a proprietary UV-resistant coating engineered specifically to protect the carbon weave from sun-ray yellowing.

Bestem's coating protects roughly 3× longer than standard OEM carbon clear coat — about 3,000 hours of UV exposure versus ~1,000 hours for typical OEM clear coat.

Because of that coating, every Bestem carbon part carries a lifetime warranty against sun-ray (UV) yellowing. If you park your Streetfighter outside, tour in the sun, or leave it on a track-day paddock all weekend, the coating is what keeps the weave looking new years down the road.

Twill or plain weave — which looks better on a Streetfighter V4?

It's a finish preference, not a strength difference. Both weaves are laid over the same pre-preg construction:

• Twill weave — diagonal 2x2 pattern; the traditional, unmistakable carbon look that flexes into curves cleanly.
• Plain weave — tighter checkerboard grid; a more subtle, uniform appearance.

Glossy amplifies depth and reflection; matte gives a stealthier, satin surface. Many riders match the finish to their existing OEM carbon accents.
