Have you any pictures of your work Raj? we all love pictures! would be interested in mk5 fiesta bits! think the mk5 roof skin fits the mk5 so will be able to use that which is good keep up the good work
Scuttle panel, dash inserts, door strips 3-dr, rs 500 lower spoiler, bumper infills 3-dr, fuel filler cap 3-dr, carbon panels made in shapes to fill in the holes on the inside of a 3-dr shell. Think ad hav all them for mine lol
depends how much fibreglass it is at that price...
if its only a layer of carbon on the top of the skin and the rest is fibreglass then its a bit pricey for what it is. Considering theres a few places doing 100% carbon resin infused bonnets for like Ł600 odd depending on car size.
but then jay, a fully prepreg jobby might be a kilo lighter but at over 3 times the price most people probably be happy with going from a 15kg steel to 5kg carbon one.
I want a 3 Door carbon steering cowell but with a better design where the two halfs meet so you can actually screw them together the standard design is shit.
I'd order one right now if you could do it.

Got mine from carbon delight a few years ago,the fit n finish is ace,shame he's no longer trading

if someone is quoting Ł600 for a prepreg one then it wont be all prepreg Warren ! and to make a 4 layer bonnet in a 390g 2x2 which is what it is normally made from if no glass reinforcement isnt used and proper epoxy not the usual universal laminating resin which is diluted down with all the othe materials used then ur molding cost if you sell a bonnet for Ł600 then you will go the same way as performance trim lol , because if you try to corner the market by selling to cheap you either end up turning out shit work due to demand or overheads and staffing levels that criple you in the end , well thats if you get the work because some people know that when things are cheap its not always a good product anyway
i did lol theres also alot of cheap nasty carbon doing the rounds to normally in the 195g weight which is not a very tight weave but its enabling cheap products but its not that stromg and looks distorted when layed up

so now will it be 3 molds to cover all or a universal mold which means it fits fuck all right
Been speaking to Jim and apparently when running a 4" exhaust the rear bumper needs to be trimmed, I need to see the actual bumper in the flesh first to determine which is the best way forward, but you are correct there will be a mould for each individual size so everyone is catered for. All I can say is that we will do our best to ensure the best fitment for which ever model and 100% into it.
Jim, got your text mate, only just got back from work so a bit creak crackered to text back but your bumper is the one to bring old pal.
Sweet will do mate, not sure they need trimming but all the ones I've seen running four inch pipes seem burnt, maybe the STD fitment carbon will sort this
