Hey there Davro,
 I belive I saw that EG at a few tracks over the years.. Been to Brands hatch a couple of times!

I sadly don't have access to a big enough oven that would allow me to make up parts such as bonnet etc so I guess infusion is going to be my option for now. I read somewhere that dry is 70% lighter than wet however I think wet is going to be much lighter than stock as it is (weighs like 31lb's / 14kg) so if I can atleast build a wet one and then keep the plugs around incase I ever get a chance to use a large oven.

Lighter Faster Stronger is definitely my motto! I had a CGA3DET (1.4 Turbo) Nissan March rally shell for amateur rallies which weighed 720kg kerb and made 183ft-lb/193hp at wheels. It was a handful but very very competitive in the unlimited class keeping toe-toe with scoobs! it had full fiberglass front and end (wings / bonnet / bumper) and rear hatch. We had as much weight removed where possible and safe!

I've just noticed you use DO as your host like me I have access to a Makerbot 3D printer for small objects I might want to make in CF but if you don't mind telling me (in PM?) about this Linux CNC stuff I'd be more than interested  

Hi Jack, 

Hey people!
 I'm Jack, I'm 23, a Software Engineer from the UK.. I'm madly in love with fast cars and in the quest to go faster, You gotta go lighter right?!
 
I'm here with a passion for composite materials, I've only ever made a few things up in fiberglass in the past but I'm looking to learn, build and understand how CF and other composites work.

As far as I understand it Wet-lay CF is the same process of Fiberglass, you use an epoxy resin baselayer and multiple layers of material on top which are subsequently "dabbed" in with more resin, Pre-preg / dry cf is more complex as it has the epoxy in the cloth and requires additional external forces to change it, this is what I want to learn about

My idea is to take my (somewhat mundane) Civic Sport and transform it, I've already performed the basics to my transformation; VTI-S lip kit, Better tyres, Uprated 4-pot calipers, Lowered over adjustable coilovers and other suspension modifications to make it handle better but in the near future I will be swapping to a K20A engine from the (EP3) Civic Type-R however while I'm at it I'm looking to change a few parts out like bonnet, wings and doorcard's with lighter alternative. Being as my model of Civic is not widely supported by manufacturers of composites like bonnets and wings I must either pay someone or do it myself.. I'm never one to settle for letting someone else do things for me so will be (attempting) to take on tasks of producing wings, a lip kit and even a bonnet of my car. 

I'm more than willing to take all the information and help I can get on the subject so if you have any info you're willing to share, post up!
