Epoxy: carbon hatch lips

I tried molding hatch lips by weighting the carbon fiber down with sand and it didnt mold good at all.I think I wasted alot of carbon and epoxy.I used 11 oz carbon fiber,(it used alot of reson). I thought it would look good and be strong and light.Are there easy to do instrucions for vacum baging? Or should I give up and use fibber glass?
