After the carbon fiber of the inside of HotRod was complete, the body was put back into the foam router and the outside of the vehicle was cut leaving a small portion of foam. In the next step of the process, carbon fiber will be applied to the outside of this foam to complete the actual body of the car. This small portion of foam between the two layers of carbon fiber adds strength to the body of the car. The picture shows the outside of HotRod being cut out by the foam router.
