ordered some custom weave carbon fiber enough to do my hood, some engine dress up and maybe if i have enough left some interior as well so my question is before i jump head first into my project in a few weeks
( I'm still on the ship ) does anyone have any experience working with CF or fiber glass and can offer any tips ?
I plan on experimenting on a few old car parts I have laying around to get an understanding of how it works and to perfect my technique but any advice is always accepted :)

Dont have any experience with it. But do a search online google,youtube, etc should be able to find some info. Good luck with the project.

Well I found ALOT of really good videos that are pretty much exactly what I am looking to do and I actually have all the tools to do it Like a pro ;)
From what I can tell it's just a Ton of patience for the most part seems really easy the hardest part I think will be the waiting and finishing touch with a sander and dremel
The CF will bond with my parts so a mistake can get expensive lol originally I was going to do a CF vinyl wrap but in all honesty the price difference vs. Looks and durability is negligible at best and everyone on charger forums and most mustangs I have seen use neffy or vinyl lol I can't wait to get started ;)
