Carbon Fiber Inlay

[DRMead]

Considering doing a CF inlay to one of my cats after race season. Hull is a BJ 29. Can anyone recommend which size/weight mat would be sufficient?? Not looking to end up with a brick ,but more strength,and durability is the goal.Thanks ahead guys.

3k 5.7oz is what I like to use.

This is the carbon I use. This should work at this width for you.

Yes. I have some of that. It's not as easily contoured as the full carbon. If very very hard to cut unless you have kevlar scissors. Here's what it looks like in a daytona I did a while back.....

This is dry...before epoxy...




And this is wetted out. It gets alot darker.....most colored fabrics do this...



If you still want the red, hit me up. I can sell you some of mine.
