Hi , i thought i would share a few photo`s with you of how im making a lupo carbon fibre parcel shelf :yes: .

After i pulled all the carpet off the shelf i was left with a crappy looking mess lol . So next I coated the shelf in resin and gelcoat leave a very messy and sharp finnish

Next i used a mini linisher and belt sander to take the rough off then blocked it smoother . I used bodyfiller to get it all smooth and a nice flat shape .

Finally the shelf was ready for some high build primer :clap:

So far this has taken 8 hours labour and i have still got to make a mold of this part yet before i can start the fun part ( the carbon :yes: ) . I will add some update pics this weekend when i make the mold
