Yes you read it correctly, I have 3 carbon fibre dashboards that I made in development of my actual dash. I must stress, none are pristine by a long way. The dash has an SVA compliant (I hope!) 25mm radiused edge along the bottom edge, that turns back through ~90 degrees.

The top one (No. 1) I sanded through a bit of the weave along the radiused bottom edge. It is cut and shaped to fit a Luego (Velocity is it?) scuttle. This is the best and nearly perfect, but not quite.

The second (No. 2) I used a poorly designed layup, and it bent like a banana when demoulded. It could certainly be used, but it would need to be held in place into the scuttle. It also has some blobs of resin on that needed flattening back (minor surface repairs). Again, cut loosely to fit a Luego scuttle.

The third (No, 3) (bottom in the picture) has a poor surface finish. I started rubbing back, but got bored and made a load more instead (hence the white specks in the surface imperfections). This one was my first attempt, and is a little heavier layup than the others. It could be used after a bit of careful sanding, and laquering.

Now, these are free as I made them at work (I love my job), and I do not want to be seen to be profiting from them. All I would say is i cant be faffed with packing, wrapping and despatching them, so it is really local pickup only. I would be more than happy to suggest a charity to make a donation to for those who take one.... similarly, I will be less than impressed if someone takes one and resells it, so if this is your plan, don't bother, or I'll hunt you down!

I am in Exeter and Oxford/Reading this Christmas, so could meet people if they can fit my very tight time constraints. Alternatively, I live in Evesham, and work in Cheltenham/Gloucester.

Strictly first come first serve - if you reserve one, then I expect arrangemtns to collect it in place ASAP, or I will offer it up again.

Good luck and let the scramble begin!

SCRAMBLE!!!!!

Edited to say, please post here, not U2U, for reasons of fairness to all....

I;d love one to cut up for cover my transmition tunnel - but I'm in the NW.

Glad to see the whole free to a good home, locosters united ethos still going strong.

Good on you!

Thanks Dangle. I hope the love is passed on/returned at some point!

Top 1 (No 1) gone to frankycopp, pending collection details.

As per u2u No3 If No1 is gone.

I would also like to add the same comments as Dangle with the locosters ethos

YQUSTA

Cheers

As we are all going to ask anyways: how did you get the bottom radius? I'm trying to imagine a suitable buck.
