Thought I'd share my latest creation, A full Series 2 Rear panel in 100% Carbon Fibre, If I can drum up some interest I may pop out a few more of these. Let me know your thoughts. Thanks

1. Cut away original panel but leave original flanges that are there to spot weld to, then tidy it all up, fill spot welds holes or weld new flanges on.
2. New panel will have a number of bonded Studs to be bolted and secured through the flanges. but will mainly be blonded into place.
3. Would only recommend this to users if fitted with a decent roll cage. A stronger panel that could be as effectively bracing as the original would require more laminations and be substantially heavy which defeats the point.

Price per panel works out at £650. No mould for a series 1 at the moment but as I have just purchase a series 1 I might look into doing this. Follow my Instagram for other carbon bits. @westwood_developed
awesome
