If I'm planning to do my own CF stuff, how do you make sure that the newly added layers of CF and resin don't interfere with the fitting of the pieces? Lots of sanding? Just want to make sure that once the CF and resin harden, I can actually put the pieces back on haha.

Sanding with 40 to 80 grit sandpaper before anything. Not too much though. Than one thin layer of resin, cf and than two more layers. Than sand it down to take out all imperfections, bumps,etc than a layer of clear. Everything needs to be done in a free of dust area, and have perfect cuts. I would mask the back of the part just in case you muck things up. Also, very important: have a lot of patience. B-) make perfect cuts otherwise it will look like shit and unprofessional.
I will be doing this , this weekend. I am cf everything.

Hmmm - almost everything what he said + :

thin layer of resin, let It dry a bit - till it gets tacky, then lay down fabric... Once CF layed down - put another 2-3 coats of resin - let ir dry till it gets hard, but still sticky - lay another layer... or two

Once its dry - sand down with 80 / 150grit - till you get the desired shape - DO NOT oversand - and damage CF... Better just sand down all the roughness - and clean everything really really good - use some pressured air - to get all the dusts out of the CF.Lay down another layer of Resin, let ir dry - and sand it with 150-220grit. Once again - if still not flat / nice surface - use some soft brush and lay down another thin layer of resin And finish everything off with 800 wet grit. After this - layer or 2 of clear coat

As for the parts being to big - just TEST them out after first 2 layers of resin. once you sand down first time - just go and test them. And you will see all the places where they need to be timed / sanded...

To be honest - if you never did anything like this - it will be hard enouth to do such parts as interior for the first time...
