Very nice job!
What kind of material do you use for mould?

Looking good!
Nice job on getting the spread tow to comply into the corners.

You've done very well to wet lay spread-tow! I have a love hate relationship with spread-tow. I love it's appearance and mechanical qualities, but I hate handling it!

From first minute that i bought my car, i wanted to have carbon fibre mirrors.
So i start a project.
First i made split mould
and than wet layup and vacuum-bag
after quick edges trim, test if if fits.
Than some sending and resin layer and more sending and polishing.
But i think it turned out great
Now the second one is waiting to be layed in mould.
