try google - you will find a lot of stuff on this. You don't need an
autoclave unless you plan to use pre-impregnated cloth. You can use normal epoxy resin systems with carbon fiber cloth, you just end up with a part that is a little heavier and weaker than optimum. You can treat it pretty much just like fiberglass if you just want to splash out a bonnet. If all you want the carbon fiber for is the appearance you can make the part out of fiberglass and just use the carbon fiber for the layer that shows. Likewise if you want the part to be very tough and strong you can use a layer or two of kevlar fabric.
