Are you going to take a mould off the body extension and then make them out of CF?

I would have said "Brum". Anyone who does not in that situation is not normal!

Looking at the ears that the bow bolts to, are they carbon and resin for their full thickness of it the a thin sheet of core material in there as well?

The vertical sections either side of the radiator have a brown/yellow colour to them. Is that the core showing through a very thin layer of carbon or have you used a carbon/kevlar mix?

My garage floor is partly carpet. One problem of part carpet is getting the creeper and trolley jack up the edge. It is warmer to lie on and it stops the axle stands from marking the floor. I don't have carpet under the engine to avoid the fluids problem.
