haha,

I couldnt stay away

Your right though, i do get a little twitch when im working on them

Iv sourced a great discount on a 100m roll of 200gsm twill and 75kg of epoxy today, which will enable me to drop the price quite significantly. To justify buying materials in that quantity i would need to shift quite a few units so i was thinking of putting together an "austerity package"

This would include:

Carbon dash
Pair of carbon wheel arches
Flat carbon panel for boot lid, to keep price down and add a bit more stiffness due to the direction of the weave the flat and panel will be epoxy gel/carbon twill/epoxy resin as per usual but will be one layer of carbon backed up with 3 layers of glassfibre matting so structurally speaking this will be "cosmetic" carbon. Il do this with the dash aswell The current price works out at

Price all in delivered uk:

£250 with black edges on wheelarches and bottom of dash or
£260 with colour of choice on edges

Just as a comparison, in grp, posted these would work out at about £195

Would this be of interest to anyone?
