Looks nice, needs a few more layers of resin then clearcoat. What type of resin system are you using and are you vacuum bagging it?

they will only be heavier (but not by much) as those are actually original parts wrapped/laminated with CF + resin...

cheers,

yea they will be heavier but not much...making pure cf pieces would be very tricky...these are for looks only...cf is still very light so i would guess that they weigh at the most 1 lb. more each.

Yes. The only company that currently sells them is Top Secret. Have fun paying $500 + and waiting for months.
