Brushed on the gelcoat. No great way to accurately spray it with this mold, just to many tight areas to insure a consistent layer. Brushing is an OK alternative but will have pin holes. This thing will get body-worked during paint so no worries.

First layer of 3/4oz mat fiberglass and 3/32" glass fibers in the tight corners.
I also added a small piece of 3/8" aluminum in the outer most section for the splitter to bolt up to later. Buried it in with the carbon Will drill and tap. Didn't get pics of that as I was elbows deep in resin.
