Anyone got a bonnet plug?
Hiya Guy's,
I've just found out there is a rather nice large roll of water damaged (Not bad, just bad enough that it cannot be used on a/c) carbon fibre
fabric at work that is just begging to become a bonnet for my car, the problem is I don't have the time to make a plug to mold the thing.
Was wondering if there was anyone out there who live near peterborough who would be so kind as to lend me their bonnet plug for a week or two.
Free professionally made carbon Fibre bonnet for whoever has one!

Been told that it's not too much of a problem with carbon fibre whether its a mould or a plug as both sides end up smooth. I'm guessing a
mould would be better if you intend to leave it unpainted (which is something I'm considering!)

Might just have a bonnet banging around you could use.
Carbon makes a pigs ear of the mould as it leaves the weave pattern etched on mould surface....... a reet tart to polish out!

Will find out tomorrow for you, I think its wetlay (if thats the stuff you all the resin to after you lay the cloth) but I'm not to sure.
Give us a figure of how much you want and I'll see what I can scrounge!

The so called water damaged stuff is deff wet lay, but I may also be able to get my hands on some prepreg too (not too much unfortunately).
If your still interested Triton?
