I'm looking to make carbon fibre body parts, using the blue carbon weave, where there is a direction of the weave based off the centre line of the car.

I dont like using gel coats as it means you have a scrap part if anything goes wrong as air will be trapped under the gel and be impossible to rectify. as a beginer I prefer the ability to be able to go to 'plan B'... also the amount of material involved with body panels makes a mistake very costly if the part ends up unusable.
