    Interesting.

    Are you using fiberglass?

    Looks pretty good thus far, but aren't you worried about the extra weight?

    Thanks for sharing, and welcome to the "C".

    This is a plug to make a mold. So I can make it out of FG. This is a quick photoshop on anouther forum member's jeep before Bondo just pink foam that's why it's not color matched too good.

    LOL I know right. I'm not too sure how the carbon would take to all the curves. I'm not sure if the lines will stay straight from the left side to the right side after going through all those lover's. When I'm done with the mold I'll try one to see how it comes out. I'm making the mold for CF +FG just in case I decide to try it.
