Where'd you get that?

 

Rich: he just wrapped it with CF...basically lay the carbon over your piece and wet it up with resin...definitely the easier way to go than replicating it out of complete CF...

Looks awesome man...too bad my car isn't black, I'd do those mirrors in a heartbeat...

 

it's all good Tony, just wait till the end of November.....

*cough* *cough*

 

het soarer2.5 i got a question. i know laying cf is similar to laying fiberglass right? i have never done it before but i have read about it, i was just wondering how you get the resin smooth like that?

 

Ive heard that it is exactly like laying glass. If only real CF wasnt so expensive, I would start doing this. Where do you guys get your sheets?

 

To be honest, I've never worked with fiber glass so I dont know it is the same. All I can say is when working with carbon fiber you have to remember to make it look good since you will see it. fiber glass gets painted over.
I use Surfboard resin because it a clear, has UV filter, and is easier to work with. this is about $40 a gal. plus Hardener.
Im not going to BS you guys and act like this is a hard process to try and make money Its easy, but Im very good with my hands. Just takes alot of sanding.
The carbon fiber is $50 a linear yard and comes 50" wide.

The resin doesnt start off this smooth. I have to sand it with 180, 320, 600, wet 800, wet 1000 grit. Then clear coat.

 

So this is a dumb question. That means we'd have to send you the item we need covering? If that's the case then what's the turn around time. First thing is I'm still hearing you can't take the wood off the middle a/c vents of a 95 sc. Someone please verify this can be done.

 

Those mirrors look hot~!

When can I send you mine?...LoL

 

Guys the same request I've made twice above applies to 2.5tsoarer's CF parts please or we'll need to close the thread.

 

Well, It seems I cant speak of this anymore since Im not a "VENDOR"

hey 2.5 soarer i know you just wrapped your mirrors, how many layers of cf did u use? just one, and as for the interior panels like the wood ect.. how much did you use and if you make a piece thats not just wrapped how many layers do u need for it to be strong enough to use? and info would be helpful, i kinda wanna experiment with cf soon too thx...

 

one layer, just make sure you paint the part black before applying
sometimes you can see between the weeve

 

need...... them.... now

 

cleansc4 how did you get the middle of the dash pieces off. i had my dash torn apart like 6 months ago putting all the electronics in and my main goal was to replace or change the mid section of the wood trim. i wrapped the doors in black vinyl and wanted to do the same for the middle but couldn't find anyway in hell to get them off. oh and yes i did plenty of searching on the forum but to no avail. any help would be greatly appreciated.
