Ok so all the talk about the carbon fiber deck lids has got me thinking about buying a pair, both my stock lids are tweeked. I have never worked with carbon fiber before, and the only stuff I have seen is the kids driving with black CF hoods on their cars. So I assume that CF be worked like fiberglass can? It can be painted and such? Maybe I would paint them, the black might look kinda cool (or ricey, is that a word) on my orange car. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/idea.gif)

www.sollercomposits.com & www.tapplastics.com has some useful info on C.F. I am going to attempt making some dash trim pieces and a console with C.F. myself. Does the high gloss come from polishing the resin or is it actually clear coated?
