Hi. My name is Alex and I am new in this. I would like to learn how to do skinning car parts and do some  parts from carbon fibre. I would like to start from skinning parts first. My quastion: 
1. What is best resin for skinning parts? Do I need black background for parts? ( original parts are silver) I have f30 bmw. And some interior parts are silver.
2.Can I use vacuum system to do skinning? If es what kind of materials I need and any advise for new person in this things.
Reason for skinning: all parts have some mounting clicks. 
Thank you

Should I PUT CARBON FIBRE THAN RESIN AND THAN AERO GRADE NYLON PEEL PLY ON TOP? THAN USE VACUUM BAG? I SAW VIDEO WHERE THEY PUT PEEL PLY ON THE CARBON WITH RESIN? THIS IS MY PLAN. I SAW COME OUT WERY GOOD. I KNOW THIS IS DEFERENCE BETWEEN FULL VACUUM TECHNOLOGY AND WHAT I planning to do. 
To do skinning on original parts I have to do 3-4 layers Resin and sanding between. I want do do something different. 
Thank you in advance
