Very,very nice job !!!

[@mrrevival6565]

Beautiful 😍

[@saymackalc]

This is nice. It's funny too because I'm about to start doing carbon fiber parts as well. Still learning and gathering information

[@familyfriendlyhomemaintena7034]

Wow nice job 👍. I would sure like to see them installed on your car 🙏

[@gregcox33]

Good job 😍👍

[@kylebell2365]

[@jeanfrancoispoivre4438]

Très belles pièces 👍

[@davidclarke7656]

Looks superb! Can I ask what adhesive you used to secure the pegs on the reverse please?

[@topshelf223]

Inspired to carbon my entire car lol ty

[@davidmurray199254]

Nice work as always. What are those metal clips called you pushed onto the 3D printed part?

[@CarbonWorkshops]

Just dash clips from ebay 👍

[@bradh4785]

What material did you use for the 3D printed parts? PLA, PETG? Cheers.

[@CarbonWorkshops]

I actualy don't know sorry. I designed the clips but had a guy make them for me.

[@luis7899]

Dont use PLA inside a vehicle. it will melt with temperatures above 55C. PETG widthstands higher temperatures and is stronger mechanically than PLA.

Buongiorno, volevo chiederti informazioni sul forno, devo acquistarlo in questi giorni per la lavorazione del prepeg, volevo sapere se veramente funziona e si estraggono i particolari come in video?

[@Bunn3403]

May I ask where you obtained the clip holders which you adhered to the back of the items please?

[@CarbonWorkshops]

I 3d printed them

[@Bunn3403]

Thanks mate, thought that might have been the case…..👍🏽

Nice work man! Love your vids and your channel btw! for clearcoating stickers/decals on carbonfiber I choose the way to first lay up to 3 additional layers of Epoxyresin topcoat and the lay on the clear - for what? During the process of curing the solvents went out and the clear "lays down" - so the decals will "come up" through the clear within the time and it looks not that good ;-) Otherwise you can spray 5 layers of clear (watch out for the drying times inbetween the single layers!) instead of Epoxy, let it dry for a few weeks, sand it with 1000grit and again put 5 Layers of clear on. So after that, the decals look like "fabric" if as they were OEM ;-)

Beautiful parts! When you put the tabs on the back, how do you make sure they are in the exact right spot?

[@CarbonWorkshops]

Thanks! I use a Digital Vernier Caliper and measure clips from original part.

Question - how can I make a mirrored image part. For example a custom fender flare that matches exact mirror image from left to right?

[@CarbonWorkshops]

Not 100% sure, I'd guess lots of templates. Or have a pattern 3d printed

[@Jaredkyatchi]

Finish is amazing! Is it really that good right out the oven?? No need to sand before clear coat?

[@CarbonWorkshops]

No straight from oven is never perfect. And always sand before clear coat. This was a fast video which skipped a few steps. Check out my other videos for more detail 👍

[@tschulian891]

which glue do you use for the 3D printet clip holder to glue them on the carbon part?

[@CarbonWorkshops]

VM100 from easy composites

[@jurinero1]

@@CarbonWorkshops Good evening, how you understand where is right place for internal fitting clips?

[@davidmooney4866]

I guess it might have helped everyone if you said what was being sprayed! Was it just a gloss varnish? (What type)

And where is the explanation?
