lot of cooling louvers on the front end of the engine hood.\u00a0 Making that out of carbon fiber would be extremely laborious.\u00a0 I could use my Ender 3 Pro 3D printer to print male plugs that I could glue onto my foam core when creating the engine hood.\u00a0 This will be a bot tricky to keep the carbon fiber weave from having a great deal of distortion.\u00a0 If I kept the louver profile very low, it could work.\u00a0 If I did not cut out the louver holes that would also be a great time saver.\u00a0 Cutting out and finish sanding every single louver would be a horrendous job.\u00a0<\/p><p>\u00a0<\/p><p>Another method would to simply print out black louvers and glue them on top of the outer skin, but I fear that might look real cheap.\u00a0 I could also build a jig to punch louvers into strips of metal, paint them black, and work the weave around the entire metal strip.\u00a0 That too would not look very good.\u00a0<\/p><p>Another option I am leaning heavily towards is printing out rows of louvers with the underside cutout already built in.\u00a0 After I skin the bonnet, I\u2019ll simply cut out a rectangular hole in the carbon fiber to allow inserting the block printed row of louvers.\u00a0 I should be able to flox and gaps and then five the entire bonnet and lovers several coats of clear coat that will hopefully give it all a unified and purposeful appearance.\u00a0 From the My Tech Fun YouTube channel temperature testing, it\u2019s clear I will need to use either ABS, ASA or nylon filament.\u00a0 ASA is the easiest of these three materials to print so that is probably the best choice.<\/p><p>Using a hat bug net, you can use the hexagonal pattern from the net and an air brush to create a carbon fiber look.\u00a0 Watch this
