Buying carbon fiber body work or components? Just because it’s advertised as carbon fiber does not mean it is made correctly. There are a lot of people out there offering light weight bodies made from carbon fiber, but they don’t bother telling you what kind of resin they are using. Don’t be fooled, a lot of it is made with polyester resin, the same stuff you would make a fiberglass body out of. Epoxy is the correct resin to use for racing application for the ultimate strength and light weight components. Polyester parts tend to be resin rich, heavy, and weak in strength. Epoxy components are also vacuum bagged and oven cured, to produce a quality strong light weight component. There are two ways to produce carbon fiber parts; wet layup, and pre preg. Wet layup is wetting out the material by hand with epoxy resin, and pre preg has epoxy resin manufactured into the material and must be cured in a high temperature oven. All body work is manufactured with a pre preg system, which is the same system used by both aerospace and the racing industry. Make sure you get the right stuff, not all “ carbon fiber” parts are not what they crackup to be. Pre preg fabrics are pre-impregnated with an epoxy resin system. As a result, nearly perfect resin content and maximum, repeatable strength properties are attainable
