Carbon Fibre Footwell Finished

Right - I've made my new footwell, and it's curvy and ultra strong.

Here are three pictures to tease you, but if you want to see how I got to this:

the initial part

the all the gory details, and 20 photos are all in this blog post. The link takes you to the three posts that cover this, and they're in reverse order.

That looks great and once installed will give just that little bit extra leg room needed.

it's just enough to angle your feet forward to get them comfy, and it's at the same angle as some foot-braces.

I've even got some CF chequerplate on tap (thanks CarbonMan) if I need it to make the inside nice and grippy for your feet.

And thanks for the compliment - there's a load of hours into doing a part like this but it's worth it compared to the oblique footwell of normal standing.
