little update
had to go pick up a cake for my boys 1st birthday and it was in the same direction as performance trim (the carbon ppl) so i gave them a ring in the week to see if they had any offcuts and they said to pop in
so i went over and picked up this bit of carbon for £10
perfect for what i need
first i cut it down to a more manageable piece
i then covered the whole piece in masking tape so i would be able to mark it out and then i made my markings for cutting
i made a cardboard cutout for getting the correct shape on the bottom
here it is mostly cut out
i used a hacksaw and then a bench grider for cutting and shaping
and here it is fitted
need to bond it in and drill wholes for the electrical conections and mounting screws, overall well happy with the job and it only took me an hour which was a bonus
