Gave it a shot finally, couple of Celi parts, and one Vette part.
The celi parts below, came out OK. THe switch panel is a PITA because of the recessed switch area, makes it hell to keep the weave straight. This was my 2nd attempt and came out MUCH better than the first. With more practice, I'll nail this piece down. The Ash tray panel came out nice I think. Both are on their 2nd coat of resin and after one more coat should be ready for sanding. The Vette door bezel below was done with the silver carbon fiber, and was my very first attempt at a piece with this kind of contour. I'm EXTREMELY happy with it though it has it's minor flaws. This is going in my personal car again. 2nd coat of resin drying here too. And, with permission of the mods, I'd like to offer the service to the 6GC.net community. It's not going to be cheap because this is a time consuming thing, but the results are worth it. If anyone wants anything done, just shoot me a message and we'll talk. Next up for me is going to be the ignition panel and main stereo panel. Saving the door handle bezels for last as they're going to be a nightmare. *Edit* As referenced in this thread: http://www.6gc.net/forums/index.php?showtopic=63283&hl= I have gotten permission to offiically offer my services to the 6GC.Net community. If anyone wants any pieces wrapped, send me a PM or post up with that you want and we'll sort the details out. Pricing will be in the $35-75 range per part depending on how big, contouring, fabric used (some colors are pricier than others, like the Gold CF). Just let me know, I'm here for you guys.
