harrypotter Posted August 31, 2021 Posted August 31, 2021 (edited) I'm having some carbon fibre skinned wide rear arches made for me (2003 wide body). Approx width 285mm. Price to be agreed but very very reasonable. Pm me if interested in having some made and I will firm up a price based on numbers. Edited August 31, 2021 by harrypotter redescribed
Andy - a15cro Posted September 24, 2021 Posted September 24, 2021 Anything happen with this? I’m needing some wide arches so looking at options.
GaryR1983 Posted September 26, 2021 Posted September 26, 2021 What's carbon fibre skinned? Grp with carbon laid on top or something else?
Dave Eastwood (Gadgetman) - Club Chairman Posted September 26, 2021 Posted September 26, 2021 There’s not exactly a hard and fast definition, as the term gets bandied about fairly loosely. It’s usually taken to mean a non structural, cosmetic only layer of carbon fibre over a (fully structural) support of something else. The structural core could be GRP, metal or something else. Carbon fibre components with an internal layer of core mat, or similar to add thickness without weight, but which still get their strength from the outer carbon shell are “just” known, generally as carbon fibre! If you see what I mean.
Storvite Posted September 27, 2021 Posted September 27, 2021 Hi Harry Potter, can we have a reply please?
Andy - a15cro Posted October 3, 2021 Posted October 3, 2021 I am guessing this one is a dead end! On to plan B!

Sorry. 😟 Mr Eastwood is as usual right on the ball. The wings are to be fibre glass with a carbon layer on top for cosmetic reasons rather for light weight. Mine will be made for me in 4-5 weeks approx. PM me if you would like more info. Thanks
