This is my attempt at making a carbon fiber fuel pump cover for my 94 Civic Hatch. Obviously, all fuel pump covers are essentially the same from 92-00. I always thought that the carbon fiber replicas looked amazing but the price wasn't amazing. Since I've been making other carbon fiber parts, I decided to make a pump cover for my road racing hatch. Fortunately, it came out fantastic and extremely light. I used a vacuum bagging system with NO fiberglass layers. I didn't wanna cheap out on this part. I've included pictures without clear and with clear coats. Let me know what you think. I'm currently working on a lip for my hatch as well. I havn't installed it yet cause my car is all in pieces, haha




This picture is when I removed the carbon fiber part from the mold.

That's really cool, man. I've always wanted to mold and make my own small CF parts. Looks good! Any chance you can make a DIY? I'm sure others including myself would greatly appreciate it!

how did you make it?

You need a female mold, carbon fiber cloth, epoxy resin, various layers of peel ply and breather, bagging film, and a powerful vacuum pump. Lots of good info on the internet.
