so it is time consuming to do hence why carbon parts are dear to buy

It would be good to make cash from on forums etc as people are pretty mad for carbon lol

Underneath the carbon skin is still the original material so its not really carbon fibre, just looks, but its definately the best looking "non real" carbon fibre out there

Real carbon is expensive because its super light weight and super strong

Parts are looking good, really add a nice look

 

[chris_200120vt]

well the fuel flap will not be skinned as i have made a mould of that so can chop the metal front off then bond the moulded carbon copy to the flap frame work , certain things can be made as a mold but skinning them anything can be done well almost did my cupra mirror will not be doing another set of those what a ****er to do would be easy if they where the same as mk4 mirrors

[clairehall]

Is the sun frames different?? I wants r32 front seats but they are expensive and dunno if they would fit

 

[chris_200120vt]

yes will have to make custom sub frames , r32 and s3 are too wide to fit in

 

[clairehall]

Bummer.....:/ think al just stick with standard seats. Wants a twin nomad pillar and some nice touches inside and that will do
