Over the past few weeks we have been working on a carbon fiber spoiler amongst other things, (door pulls, hood tail lights, etc) so I thought I'd show the progress on that . These are pictures from before the weekend, later on today I have to grab more updated pics of the spoiler put together and seamed.
This is the spoiler in the mold. This piece requires a two part mold. The base, and top. The spoiler is in the base mold and we were prepping it to make the top mold.
Here are the two halves of the spoiler trimmed . I don't know if you can tell its carbon fiber because of all the carbon fiber dust, but if you look hard you can see.
And here is the base mocked up on Sams car! The sides have not been trimmed yet on this picture, thats why it looks like its sticking out. We had to take a caliper to measure every inch of the piece so that way we can compare every piece to the mm in measurement. On a piece like this there is no room for error!
I'll post more pics tonight with updates .
