I sanded down the door panels and trimmed the excess CF off of the drivers door. I wanted to see how it looked and check for fit and this is what I got:
Not to shabby. I can't wait to finish this project, it's gonna look awesome.

Looks good. Can't wait to see the finished product. Any plans for ABL?

ABL isn't going to happen through carbon fiber unfortunately.

No more ABL. I don't like it anyway so no big deal to me.

How'd you get the center A/C vent trim out without removing the dash?

I have a 2012 and there is a leather piece in the middle that comes out. The AC trim is connected to that.

You just let it drape down into the holes. Remember, I cut the extra cloth out with my dremel once it has hardened.

What type of bonding epoxy did you use and what type or resin?
I was thinking of doing this but with fiberglass resin and 3m adhesion spray. (first testing it on a sample.) |

I used a thin epoxy resin. The same as what I use to coat the CF. If the fiberglass resin is a polyester resin, I would not reccomend it. Based on what I have read, polyester resin is more brittle than epoxy based resin and if it cracks, it "spiderwebs" out.
