I was looking for ages, but gave up. Something that size could be over £100

Try Carbon Mods.
Depending on what you want it for, it may be better to get 200 gram carbon faces with an E glass core.

The sooner you fall behind, the more time you'll have to catch up.

wanted £215?!?!?!?!

I may be able to help, depending on what you need it for and how quickly you need it? That is quite a large piece.
Drop me a message if you like!

I may try ringing a few other companies to find a damaged sheet or something with imperfections in it, hopefully they will be cheaper

DIY?
Big mirror, a kit from carbonmods, and layer it with FG and you'll be sorted.
I picked up a sliding wardrobe with mirror from B&Q for a tenner. Just need to get round to getting the rest of the bits

Considering a rear bootlid/ panel (on an MK Indy) measures 102cm x 45cm I'm guessing thats what he's after.
Julian Eisel @ Aerodynamics supplies these

I could knock an infused panel up for you 1000 x 500 x 2mm which would be as close to a pre-preg part in terms of resin/fabric ratio for £100.00
delivered if thats any use?
As said above carbonmods do diy wet lay kits which would be suffice but the finish and strength would be no comparison to an infused or p/p part.
Hope this helps
Kind regards

Thanks for the reply
I have already re-made the boot lid with some carbon look abs sheet unfortunately
I think 1000mm would be just slightly too short too!
Thanks though, will keep you in mind if I need any in the future
