I thought this may be of use to some people on here;

CarbonMods now offer a Mould Tool making kit to go along with their Carbon skinning kit and a Carbon Manufacturing kit so that individuals can manufacture parts at home; either by skinning (just for the look) or the actual production of 100% carbon parts.

All the other videos and guides are on their site and Youtube channel

All starter kits as well as material supply are available from http://www.carbonmods.com

I think the next plan is to produce a small, flat pack Autoclave that individuals or business can use at home

AWSOME

now with the current ecenomic climate i can see a lot of people on ebay with custom carbon parts for sale, its a good invesment tbh, for example a mould for the x14/16xe engine cover, you could make a right bomb on those

Would anyone be interested in a Group Buy of a Mould Tool Making Kit + Carbon Laminating Starter kit.

I would do the leg work to set it up if people were interested and would be around £75 (+ p&p around £5) for the two sets; thats a saving of £10.10 off the retail. Ideally would be after 10 people but would do it for 5 people

I'll confirm prices if there was a demand, otherwise there's no point and you're better off buying direct

obviously would need more than one kit for a bumper, just wandered if it would be strong enough over a large area, could do a dash too, hmmm i may have to investigate this as i have just had another idea for my corsa not a carbon dash but something else, i might be interested in a few sets with you lee

It's a nice thought, but it's tricky to get stuff right.

You could make the moulds from CSM and MDF. When I finally get round to making my bumpers I'll show you
