[When you only have 62 horsepower to begin with, this helps considerably!]<\/p>\n<p>It was only a matter of time once friends, family and the local car communities had seen these little Minis adorned with shiny and beautifully crafted carbon fibre pieces, that they were all requesting parts to be made for their own cars. Having previously started in a shed at the bottom of the garden, it was time to scale up &#8211; This led to the birth of TC Composites as we know it today.<\/p>\n<p>With a keen interest in developing and using the latest technologies and methods, TC Composites honed its production processes over the years, now creating all products from the highest quality \u2018pre-preg\u2019 carbon fibre.

The temperatures are moderated and monitored throughout using computer controlled equipment.
