My Assembly Manual describes decoring a portion of
the firewall to mount the canopy gas strut bracket. It mentions that in later
models the firewall will come decored.(as mine did)
The manual required 8 bid carbon reinforcement
extending 2" beyond the manually decored area. That required 8 pieces of
6X7 inch carbon fiber per bracket. My question is the factory decored
area is much larger than required for the bracket and would take a total of
16 each 9x11 inch pieces of carbon fiber to cover the area with a 2"
margin. Am I reading this right? Does the whole decored area need to be
reinforced? That's alot of carbon.
