super mod of this forum too


Also, uscomposites carries alot of different types of cf and cf kevlar hybrids. The most common and widely used cf is the 2x2 twill. On their site, they call it "5.7oz Twill '1st Quality' Carbon Fiber Fabric". Its what I use on everything I do, laminating and casting. Its all good

I know of a guy who has alot of CF he is selling at a pritty wicked price, I am getting him to come to this board as well.

I have been talking to him for over a year or so now very trust worthy (hes going to be molding a 7" lcd into my mr2 dash soon).

Soller composites; they have good prices and excelent quality. They have standard carbon fiber fabric and they also carry aerospace carbon, which is stronger at only a little more cost. 5.6 oz per square yard is very popular, but Soller has everything, carbon, kevlar, s-2 glass.
