Carbon Fiber Body Panels - who makes them?

[BioBa]

I have seen Redicals that have bodypanels made from carbon fiber but I can't find who makes them and how much they are. Any ideas?

They're not exactly 'carbon' as you'd expect (you know proper all carbon and resin vac bagged/pre-preg that kind of thing).

Instead they're clear gelcoat overlaid with carbon cloth which is then overlaid with the the usual chopped strand and resin so are actually pretty heavy. More 'carbon effect' than 'carbon'. Look nice though.

I could not see them on their online shop so assumed they do not make CF panels.
Thanks for the info.

As explained above I believe they're carbon-effect more than lightened carbon units. They're a 3445GBP option on a new build from some documentation I hace from 2011.

If you want full carbon panels made I know someone in Melbourne who could do it. If you're after the look only then you could just have it carbon wrapped.
