Quick update, I did the last part of the mould today, so now it just needs to be trimmed up and its ready! Then it will just be a matter of when my mate can help me lay it up and cure it. Hopefully soon, whatch this space!

My bad!

I asked that question on the first page and I didn't get a definitive answer. So it's a good question! Would be good to have a local making some of this stuff...

Cheers

Im sure if there is enough interest in ANY particular parts, that we can make the moulds for them. Its all up to a matter a mould cost. If there is plenty of interest, any mould can be made and the cost absorbed into the cost of each part. Of course if there is only one or two parts ordered, they would be very expensive, or it would cost us money.

I took the gamble with this one and paid for everything myself, because I really wanted to make my own lip.

Sorry about not answering that question earlier, didnt realise I missed that! So if you guys want a part in carbon or fibreglass, or kevlar post it up and we will try to get some interest going.

For info, aluminum inserts can be made into parts, and we also have the ability to make structual components, even up to the stage of using aluminium and Nomex honeycomb. Hope this help guys.

How about making some custom CF airboxes then ?

by **Jimmy S** » Thu Apr 23, 2009 7:23 pm

would be fairly easy to make some moulds of the stock parts wouldnt it?

Stock airbox and stock engine cover moulds to be made in CF would be fairly popular I imagine?
