vapor barriers

I ordered some jigsaw blades off of the bay that is specifically designed for cutting acrylic.

After I choked on my own saliva when I saw the price of carbon fibre for door cards...

1/8"x24"x48" = $713

I thought I'd have to be crazy to cover them up.
I had a reality check when I saw the 3/16" panel went for only $796.

Since I only paid $248 for my Festiva, I will pass on this insanity.

It's only $160 for a carbon honeycomb?

Personally, I cut a barrier out of a $1.99 harbor freight tools blue plastic tarp and used the tacky glue that is used to attach the felt seal to clothes dryers. It Works!

I was looking at carbon fiber again. The actual thickness of the door cards is only 1/8". The U.S. Composites site has discounted carbon fiber. Since I'm not interested in absolute surface perfection, as it will be covered over, I could make my own carbon fibre sheets on a table and just put another table on top of it to flatten it out. Vacuum is unecessary. Now I have to figure out how many laters are needed to make 1/8". Or, maybe I should look for ballistic grade Kevlar just in case HS decides to shoot some hollow points at my Festiva.
