I think there is a reason why not very many people have attempted a CF chassis, mainly because of getting the piece bent, namely the kick-up angle. I would think it would weaken the epoxy, and thus the 'composite' strength by the heating and bending.
I wonder if a Teflon mold would work for getting the angle of kickup right if laying your own CF fabric?

why could'nt you use the originale chassis as a mold if your going to lay your own CF ?. Just put masking tape on the chassis as a mold release .
