Default Carbon Fiber Berger Panel

I haven't posted much about my car on the forum. But I thought this appearance mod would fit the bill. I was planing on doing a black satin Berger panel. But I have been wanting to build something with suede, leather, and carbon fiber. So I began with this small project.



Not me I'm the picture


The best angle before the resin was layed


This is the first of many parts that I will be hand laying carbon fiber.
I will continue later with finished pictures soon.

Did this to mine, I used a lot of resin for the final top coat to get that nice gelcoat look. Looks like it will be 2 sheet and not one continuous?

No this is mine I'm doing the job. Also yes it's a two piece. A badge will cover to joint but they matched up pretty nicely even if I wasn't going to put a badge on it.

Thanks everyone. A brief install will be this weekend just to see what it looks like next to the NBM.

Word of advice, the sides of the panel try not to build up with cf and resin too much or it won't sit flush with the rear quarters. I took about 1/2 off so I could get a good wrap around the edge and resin built up.
