What's up ! just finished this video while under quarantine lol

I bought some chopped carbon fiber from Amazon and decided to do something cool with the front bumper after repairing it, went for that Forged Carbon Fiber look.

Enjoy!

I like this mod a lot not only did it make the part more rigid but it looks good too.
AND It has me wanting to do this to a few of my own parts on one of my projects.
It definitely has a different look to it than normal carbon fiber.

What kind of Resin system did you use?

I watched some other Youtube videos where they used a Black Epoxy or Gelcoat as first step But you didnt. curious?
