Hi guys!
I'm working on an airbox cover for my bike...
As you can see the cover has big recesses, and the weave is distorting a little bit... (there was also a problem on the bagging, but that is easy to solve in the next infusion)

With the plain carbon the distortion is almost acceptable (even if I don't like it because my eyes always go there..), but now I tried with the twill and even if I haven't made the infusion yet I have already seen that the distorsion is even bigger because the fibers are more free to move...

Do you think there's a way to make the fabric distort less??
Maybe I should try to cut separate parts of fabric for the recesses, and cut two holes in the main part but since the airbox is on top of the bike I fear to see the seam...
