shock reservoir.
Look at posts 176, 180, and 184. I build a buck out of wood, cardboard, tape, foam, and whatever, then cover that with fiberglass and sand smooth. Then I pull molds off of the buck, cutting them apart where necessary to get them off the buck. Finally I pull the CF parts out of the molds and bond them together where necessary. Not a hard process, but a little time consuming. Hope this helps.Do you make a part like that over foam and cut it apart? i need to figure out how to do this.
That is really nice.
this is akin to Michael Jordon saying "well, I just play basketball"... you are way too modest, that looks amazing.Look at posts 176, 180, and 184.

Thanks! The splitter is a laminated hard, dense plastic - red in the middle with a 1/8" black upper and lower surface. So, when you shape it, the red will always be visible in the center. We'll see how it holds up. I can always go back to the factory ACR splitter which I know through experience will take quite a beating.Pappy -
I like it a lot! {You've heard that before...}
Is the red tube an add-on or part of the Viper Splitter?
I like the use of Kevlar on the bottom side. I've used some in my fender build. I am saving the rest for work like yours.
PVC scuff pads maybe? (I hate them for aero reasons if just screwed on - but they can be used to "shape air.")
