it was tricky to get the carbon to fold around the shape. the reason i had a go at making theses i becasuse i liked the look of the one's on carbon wezel but thought they were a bit pricy lol

you can get carbon effect ones from ebay for between £30-40 a little more if you want indicators incorporated.
