Rob Leech Posted November 3, 2011 Report Share Posted November 3, 2011 How do all, got this finished off and built up this evening, so here she is- Uploaded with ImageShack.us Picture makes it look alot nicer than it is Pretty rough around the edges, but i dont think it's too bad for my first proper use of carbon. Pic of the carbon- Uploaded with ImageShack.us I've documented the whole repair process if anyone wants to see it Massive thanks to Carl Hopps for the frame aswell, diamond! Let me know what you think. Cheers, Josh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark W Posted November 3, 2011 Report Share Posted November 3, 2011 Having seen it built up, I reckon matte black would've been a good choice for where it's been sprayed yellow. Would've been a nice, subtle contrast in texture/tone to the carbon. Looks like a good job anyway, be interesting to see how it holds up!

aener Posted November 3, 2011 Report Share Posted November 3, 2011 See what you mean about the paint now... Should've left it at distance shots Carbon weave does make it look lush though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rob Leech Posted November 3, 2011 Author Report Share Posted November 3, 2011 Did you glue it together or weld? Welded the crack, gusseted where the crack was, wrapped it in diolen, then in a carbon sleeve and finally bonded it all (epoxy resin ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
