Hey Guys,

During one of our UAM meetings today we tossed around the idea of developing a Carbon Fiber Roof Panel replacement. But before we add it to our development board we wanted to see what you guys thought of the idea. We have several options for CF weave pattern and color. Here are some of the weave styles that would be available: (All patterns are Aerospace grade with a 600+ksi rating)

2X2 Twill (3k) (649 ksi) (W:5.7oz/yd)

Plain (3k) (653 ksi) (W:5.7oz/yd)

V or Regular 4x4 Twill (3k) (Commercial Grade) (W:7.8oz/yd)

PW "checkered board" (649 ksi) (W:5oz/yd) * Same pattern as seen in Formula 1 *

Pricing is estimated to be in the $1200-$1500 range

Let us know what your thoughts are on this idea and if you would be interested.
