Carbon Fibre Help Please

[Tony7]

The woodwork dash in my cockpit all looks a bit faded and drab, As Im looking to sell PDQ ( new boat found and waiting ) does anyone know of a supplier who will make me new dash panels in carbon fibre? will make her look very smart and practical.
Thanks Tony W

You can buy it as self adhesive sheets. Try a motorbike shop or the back of the bike mags.

Or Halfords

you could also get the panel laser cut and then powder coated

There is a good place for stuff like that in Cornwall - http://www.fullbarcomposite.com. Do some really good stuff with carbon fibre - including a really smart office desk (but I wouldn't want to pay for it!).

Edit - Should add I have no connection with the company other than a friend works there and I've seen some of their work.

An alternative approach is to use a thick acrylic such as perspex that has a heavy colour such as dark grey. End result looks really good, at a fairly low cost.

Thanks guys, good food for thought, Think I'll explore a mix of both IE, new dash cut from perspex with carbon fibre covering.
Thanks again.
