Looking really nice.

Just one question.

How can we give that extra gloss to the carbon dash? giving a coat of varnish or there is enough thickness of resin to be polished (If that's possible)?

Thanks

Ps i would love to have a set of front and rear carbon wings... Are you planning to have them made?

Build cost.... seems to be spending more on tools than car bits at the moment! (they will be handy in the future though).
Car iva'd and passed 15/08/2014. Finished weight 572kg.

spent untill 10pm in the workshop last night catching up on some orders so had a bit more fun before i went home, didnt come out great but it is a prototype. Epoxy resin is evil

The finished article must weigh less than 50gram, but very stiff. They will require edge trimming though as the edges are very thin. Ive got alot of orders to get through in the next week, so its gonna be a week or two before i get to improve the finish and play with bonnet and arches so watch this space....

Interesting.... Looking good. Will need to find some arches that will fit 225/45/18 on front and 275/45/18 on rear. Think this is something you can do? Heh
