Playr, i'll give it to you, thats some clean work. Are you using a sprayer for your clear-gel? Or are you that damn good with a brush?

Most everything I've done is wet layup all "brush" work.
That CF deck lid for the 6th gen coupe was the first piece i ever did. The work was ok. I could do it much better now. I have a rear diffuser for a E46 3-series on my desk right now that needs to be finished for the weekend so pics of that will be up soon. and i keep promising 6gc door work, but I haven't had a lot of time so maybe if i'm lucky this weekend i'll get some work done. I have ventured into some minor bag work though. |

I gotta make a fiberglass one first to see if i can do it.
a CF hood would be very expensive. the cost wouldn't justify your use. If you want you could wrap part/all of your OEM hood, if there is a CF sheet large enough |

^x2
You can get a 4'2" (about) x W/e yardage you wanna buy from here http://www.fibreglast.com/showproducts-cat...20Tapes-15.html That'd be close, but maybe a 50" and 2 yards long would handle the job. Maybe. I've never measured our hoods. 3K, 2 x 2 Twill Weave Carbon Fiber Fabric is what you want This post has been edited by D-Man: Aug 27, 2008 - 1:04 PM -------------------- QUOTE (presure2 @ Nov 6, 2010 - 6:16 AM) Via FB: fcuking awsome!!!
