Gents,

Total novice looking for advice. I am a novice car restorer (engine builds etc.) but lacking in bodywork skills. I have been lucky enough to purchase a Lambo with carbon fibre side skirts. They have been damaged by kerbs. I have just been quoted £4000 to have them repaired which seems nonsense.  the damage is low down so I reckon the weave may not match perfectly but as it is dark it should not matter too much. Do you think this could be repaired using one of your kits, and if so which one should I purchase? Regards, John

uhhhh .. be careful   Sounds a bit like you've been stung by the "Composites bug"  --- It' a disease most detrimental to spare time and wallet, only one illness worse in that respect is a condition called "Armas Numeralis"

Not only does that make you poor, it also stunts your social acceptability, tends to make your views politically incorrect, and may in time turn you into a redneck BigGrinLaughWow

Do not adjust our mind, theres a fault in reality :-)
