Get any thing else on this. Its looking great. When you made the mold did you just cut the shape from a wood block then mold the fiber around that? Im asumming thats what you did but it is very hard to tell from your pics.
Keep up the great work I bet it will be the Strongest cool looking chassis around.

There will be an L-profile on the otherside aswell so the mounting will be very stiff. The upper shock mount will not be like it is originally.
