Hey guys,

One of my latest jobs. Goes with the front end and roof, and a number of other jobs I've done for this car over the years.

Basically the car was making too much power for the 235 rear tyres and wouldnt understeer, so when the fibreglass bodywork got damaged we decided to widen the rear arches by 50mm to fit 295 tyres in. I also made a number of other modifications to make removal a 10-minute 1-person job, compared to the 4-hour, 2-person job that it was originally.

Hi Hanaldo,
That is a ONE BIG WONDERFUL WORK bro!! I had doubt about using vacuum infusion method for large panels and now I got it all cleared. I have one question if you are kind enough to answer. 
What is the fabric you used, number of layers and how much resin were needed for that rear panel?
