So i've been doing a good deal of thought
doors weight TOO MUCH hence i've thought about making my doors fiberglass and maybe having them C/F wrapped for good looks the shell of the should be easy for me to make since its make a mold of the door then create 5 layers inside that... the rest i'm a lil worried about is the strength issues and such? any opinions |

well they already make cf doors
which alot of the time are f/g cores wrapped in c/f and if you run a x brace or sumthing like that on the inside you can still save a ton of weight while being sum what safe since f/g will shatter anyways but my entire front is made of f/g lol hmm maybe a future project that i'll put off for a while |
