I finished my hood bonding the hood vents into it. All raw exposed carbon fiber.






I had the vents laid up to match the "V" pattern.

Hmmmm... a hint that it will remain in raw carbon perhaps?

I have an oil over-cooing condition for street duty. Even with a Mocal 202* thermostat the oil does well to get up to the water temp (160*). On cold days the needle usually does not budge off the lowest reading of 140*.

If the carbon is left "nude", do the uv's breakdown the resins over time? Or does clear coating it reflect or absorb them? Curious...mike
