No this is not a which is better between carbon vs aluminium but what do you prefer between bars that show the carbon vs those that are covered. I think i am leaning towards the clear coat but i am not set. I know i want a dropper bar.

Hard to say, I like the naked carbon but I have both. As long as the bar spec fits my need I'm happy. Yes there's pros and cons. For one the naked carbon bars with clear coat are much easier to clean than the one with matte paint finish.
I have decided if i am getting naked carbon but trying to find them are becoming difficult. If i hold my hands shoulder width it is 750mm. I think i want a 30mm riser but not sure. I am a big guy so i am looking at am or dh bars. Any suggestions?

AM bars should be fine. I'd say a bar around 680-720 is about right. DH/FR bars are longer than that. Consider that with a longer bar, you're restricted to wider trails and may accidentally catch the bar on a branch or something similar more easily than a shorter bar.
