L=49 x W=7.5 x .50 cents = ****. Am I correct?
Because the wing is not square you have to figure differently. The CF overlay only comes in rectangular sheets. It must be laid out carefully and you can't "bend" it as a result there will be "dead space". You have to create a large rectangle that will fit most of the wing. I did this then added the square for the "winglets" on the forward edge of each side. This only takes into account the top. If you want the whole wing (top and bottom less the cylindrical posts connecting them to the car) you will have to also consider thickness.

Top alone = 47" X 9" = 423
winglets top = 7" x 6" =42 x2 = 84
total top =507" X .5 = $253.50

Double that for top and bottom. $507

These are forum member prices ONLY! I am working on a website where the prices will be higher (need to make a profit there!)
