Epoxy resins are not all UV stable. Composite parts from places like MA are most likely also coated in clear coat for a better shine and UV protection.

I have WAY too much on my plate right now to be messing with carbon projects. Also I only have a 4harness weave and all the parts in those photos are a 2x2 twill. The 4H doesn't look as good but is strong.

It may be a month or two before I am good enough to make cosmetic parts, i have been playing around with structural parts like splitters and body panels that can get painted and are likely to get damaged.

I will let you guys know when/if I can produce parts that are pretty enough to warrant selling. And for those on this forum they would be very affordable.
