>> "Forged Composites (FC) carbon fiber looks more like marble or burl wood versus the traditional black woven fabric carbon fiber"

Not that I'd ever buy a supercar, but personally think the look of FC looks cheap compared to the woven carbon fiber.




Looks like what Campagnolo has been doing to make their high-end equipment: http://www.wigglestatic.com/product-media/5360052668/campy-r...


Seems like that would be fixed by lining the molds with a layer or two of impregnated carbon fiber cloth.
