Hi, 

Definitely infusion is the way to go, and I don't think the top frame would be too difficult. 

To my eye, this could be done as two complete halves (inside & Outside) using infusion .. You would have to cut out the window part of each door "skin" Then trim and bond the halves together.

It does not look at all complicated to me -- The 2CV "stamped" metal doors are VERY simple shapes ..

The window-area that needs to be cut out could be laid up with cheap glass-fibre cloth, just as "sacrificial infusion facilitator" or the mould made with a glass-plate, and the cut out CF "sheet" used as flat CF sheet for other purposes ..

A Carbon 2CV would certainly be a sight to see .. and very light weight

We have a few completely galvanized 2CV's driving around in our area .. A "CF 2 CV"  would certainly outshine them ..

Good Luck

Hi Guys,

I would agree that infusion is the way forward. Inner and outer mould/skin as suggested. The window frame area is wide enough to be successfully moulded and would just need additional reinforcement added during the layup to stiffen it slightly, especially where it joins to the main door lower panel so you don't get any flex in that area.  Otherwise the shape does look relatively nice in terms of moulding so should not be too challenging to demould when the time comes.
