Composite.
Hybrid.
Full Carbon.

Every kit is available in three material tiers. The silhouette is identical across tiers — the differences are mass, finish, and price.

Tier

Composite

Glass-fibre reinforced polymer with a smooth gel-coat surface, ready for paint.

Material
Glass-fibre reinforced composite (GFRP) with polyester/vinylester resin
Weight saved
−15 to −25 kg vs OEM bodywork
Lead time
8–10 weeks
Finish
Gel-coat, primed and ready for bodyshop paint
Best for

Street builds, show cars, and cost-sensitive conversions where OEM-equivalent finish quality is the priority.

Every NorthSea Dynamics composite panel is hand-laid over a CNC-milled master plug and cured under controlled workshop conditions. The result is a panel with the visual geometry of our carbon builds at a fraction of the price.

Composite panels are fully repairable at any competent bodyshop and accept standard automotive paint systems without special preparation. Two-year kit-side warranty against delamination and resin failure.

Tier

Hybrid

Composite substrate with a woven carbon-fibre outer skin on visible surfaces.

Material
Composite substrate laminated with 2×2 twill carbon-fibre outer skin
Weight saved
−25 to −40 kg vs OEM bodywork
Lead time
10–12 weeks
Finish
Clear-coated carbon weave, or paint over carbon on request
Best for

Owners who want the carbon look and roughly 60% of the weight savings of a full-carbon build without the full-carbon price.

Our hybrid layup uses a structural composite core with a cosmetic carbon-fibre outer ply on every visible surface. Panels are vacuum-bagged and post-cured for dimensional stability.

This tier is popular for GT3 and Super Trofeo conversions where owners want carbon-visible bodywork above the beltline while keeping splitters, diffusers and inner structures in composite.

Tier

Full Carbon Fiber

Monolithic pre-preg carbon fibre throughout, autoclave-cured for competition use.

Material
Pre-preg carbon-fibre laminate, autoclave-cured with epoxy matrix
Weight saved
−40 to −60 kg vs OEM bodywork
Lead time
12–16 weeks
Finish
Matte or gloss clear over exposed weave, or fully painted
Best for

Track and competition builds where every kilogram matters and structural stiffness is measured at the panel level.

Full-carbon kits are laid up in matched female moulds, debulked between plies, and cured in the autoclave under vacuum and heat for maximum fibre-volume fraction. Every panel is weighed and ultrasonically inspected before shipping.

Repairs on full-carbon panels require a specialist. We maintain a network of approved repair shops in the EU, and we accept damaged panels back at Uppsala for full remanufacture if a repair isn't viable.
