These carbon fiber 991 911 side splitters are extremely light, yet strong enough to stand on when mounted to the vehicle.
Vacuum Assisted Resin Transfer Molding
Vacuum Assisted Resin Transfer Molding or VARTM for short is used to create aerospace grade components without the use of a very expensive autoclave. During this process we seal the mold in plastic and create a vacuum on the mold. We then fill our resin tank with resin and open a flow valve where the resin travels from the tank to the mold under the vacuum we created.
