Working with CF is almost identical to fiberglass, although finished detail is alot more precise than fiberglass, as you want a nice, clean fiber weave.

CF is readily avail from almost any fiberglass retailer, Or a good online retailer ive worked with is:

Any other questions, feel free to shoot me an email, and Ill try to help as much as I can!

I looked at this last night....it looks like something I need to get...Im just gonna come up with something to make. someone said something along the lines of a boost pod on the steering column, so I might try to figure that one out.
Im gonna look a little more into it.

check out www.fibreglass.com they even sell "how to" videos. my favourite product they sell is the sheets of honeycomb you can press or form around something then just put a heat gun to it and presto! instant mould. they even sell kevlar! if you lived in a really rough neighbourhood you could make up some door panels!
