Che'_Moderator Posted February 16, 2006 Report Share Posted February 16, 2006 Mark @ Gemini molds CF so they are genuine CF, not crappy overlays i want a lipbut money must be spent elsewhere...HummAssume above statement.(Overlays are crappy) = xGemini = xSolve for Gemini.LOL. In all seriousness though. It says right on their site that they use glass for their frames. Graphite for a decent weight runs 20 a yard easy, plus veil, resin, and hardner. You dont see real graphite at those prices. Hell I think my resin+hardner is close to 40 a liter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Che'_Moderator Posted February 16, 2006 Report Share Posted February 16, 2006 So even the R front spoiler is CF layered FG?Their pictures look like it. But why guess. Someone who has one take a pictue of the back of it. But from the pics I have seen it looks like they used a roving gun and a mold then laminate it.

Mike H. Posted February 16, 2006 Author Report Share Posted February 16, 2006 What piece and how much volume? For low runs you can get away with some ugly molds.Front lip spoiler, skirts and back apron. Just one or two. What do you mean by getting away with ugly molds, meaning not smooth?
