Hi guys!

Have been following you for many years and always been inspired by your YouTube tutorials!

I have a front splitter for my track car that I purchased not long ago and they don’t make it anymore so I’m wanting to make a mould of it incase it gets damaged but more to the fact I would like to make it out of carbon fibre.

It has many angles which means it can’t be made from a single piece mould, I was thinking a 2 piece split or even 3? consisting of a top and bottom so to speak

I would very much like your opinion and any advice you could give me in this venture, the splitter is in 2 parts and pictured is one one half as the other half is a mirror image.... also the aluminium plate bonded to the bottom will be removed For mould making

I have uploaded the pictures to my one drive via a link as o tried to upload the pictures straight to here but after 15mins of waiting it still hadn’t uploaded one picture.

Hope you can assist me
Thanks
Phil

Will keep that in mind! I’m making a few other moulds of smaller easier items before I take this on, but all advice is appreciated for when I do this part 😁
