PassionFord Post Whore!!
The carbon one looks really good, nothing against Spec. r / AS etc, but the saff bumper does have a few too many bends and shapes to get a metal one to sit right with no gaps....

if any one fancies nipping their bumper down to me for one day then I will happilly make a mould for 2 versions and supply which ever for free for their generosity!!! I would also do a rolled edge instead of a cut edge, takes a little more effort but makes the world of difference imo

Yes mate, can make it look a lot neater, here is a redtop heatshield we have recently done with a rolled edge, .7mm thick made from a 3 layer stack
The main thing to notice is the edge, most composite makers will simply make an oversize sheet then cut it back to the correct size, doorcards is a good example. We try to use a rolled edge where ever possible, it means a fair bit more work but the end product just looks better.
Hope this makes sense.
p.s. come on kjimbo get your saph up to autoflock hq!!! promise I will do you a nice brew

just to add all our carbon composites are created using infusion which allows to get the high quality finish in our products, here is a sneaky pic of the heat shield just broken out of the mould.
