Group: Forum Members Posts: 300, Visits: 2.2K	Thanks All Well pleased with the weight reduction of this part, considering I have raised the height of the new part. Goal was to reduce the weight of this bonnet air scoop to under 1kg. This new 4 layer carbon fibre part is around 900 grams, minus some trimming + some clear coat So the new part is over 1kg lighter than the original glass fibre part + it has a go faster stripe ! The spread tow Go faster stripe was cut with easy composites 8-inch-kevlar-scissors David Stevens YouTube: Comment \| Rate \| Subscribe Instagram Composite Projects Body Package for Dax Rush RC Car Touring Body 1/10 Scale

Update, some pictures of the extended bonnet mould in progress. Next build a wooden frame around the back of the mould for support. Compound back the mould finish, and polish polish polish David Stevens YouTube: Comment \| Rate \| Subscribe Instagram Composite Projects Body Package for Dax Rush RC Car Touring Body 1/10 Scale
