Although I’m in the middle of three jobs already, I’m thinking about the next job.

I have a Ferrari California replica based on a Merc SL500. It has a boot lid liner made of a compressed fibre material with a carpeted face. To match the rest of the boot interior I want to replace it with a CF panel. I thought of using some sticks to make a geodetic support on the carpet side so I can take the cover off without it loosing its shape. Covering the compressed fibre with something like packing tape or aluminium foil then layers of vacuum bag, separation ply and finally peel ply, so nothing should stick too well. I can then make a mould off the back of the liner, which should have a reasonable finish off the fibrous side and I can refinish this if I need to. Then do a CF vacuum ( envelope) baging part in the usual way. This can be fixed to the underside of the boot lid in some way. ( double sided tape with a couple of locating self tappers maybe.). I need to keep the weight down to save overloading the motors that work the convertable part of the boot lid.

Has anybody done anything like this before or has any ideas how to do it or anything I need to be aware of.

Mick
