I would rather lose by a mile because i built my own car, than win by an inch because someone else built it for me.

Incredible skills and patience. Hats off to the man. He should start his own business now he has the moulds.

Doesn't seem interested though.

I appreciate it, but it does not look good, paint it and it would be better.

I think painting the headlight surrounds black or dark grey would make it look a little less in your face.

Kudos for doing it himself

I wonder what the market for carbon fibre ponds is like?

I would rather lose by a mile because i built my own car, than win by an inch because someone else built it for me.

I suppose it's down to whether you're running a race garden or not.

If you've a titanium shed and composite terrace, the carbon pond is probably the way forward.
