Well, sorry for the delay. I guess over the weekend California got alot of rain, than warmed up real quick, casuing a real humid situation. This is very bad for laying up carbon fiber. The hood was/is in the mold hoping to be able to be saved, unfortunitly was left in the paint booth and moisture may have got in. Next time it will be in a more secure enviroment. But by keeping it in the mold longer we may have been able to let it cure enough, that the moisture doesn't get in and cause pin holes. Mine as well a Porsche hood and a few other item may be ruined as well. I just found all this out myself, he is going to try tomorrow and pull it out of the mold. If it fails than the he just has to lay up another hood, as well as the other items. So it may be until next week now . We shall see



Here are a few pic's of the OEM CF hood in the mold...more to come as they are available.
