i just wanted to see if carbon acts like sheet metal in the way if you add swage lines and curves or compound curves to a part it helps to make it more rigid.
i know adding these to a flat sheet of metal help it to become more rigid and just wanted to see if anyone had found that by adding swage lines etc to carbon it helped when compared to a flat sheet

Yup, helps massively just like metal panels. Any fold or curve will add strength to your mouldings.
