I would not recommend using carbon fiber layups over glass here.
Stay with the glass.

Not usable as is. � You need to beef up the whole recessed gear channel with carbon fiber layups.
And preferably at the nut end of the bolts also. � My 3 cents.

While cleaning the underbelly of my airplane I noticed a small piece of 1/4" thick hard rubber near where the right main landing gear attaches to the fuselage. (Photo1)

I took off all the inspection panels and found that the 1/4" thick hard rubber piece that goes between the landing gear and the fuselage had ripped with the piece I found falling out. I also noted that the fiberglass around the�front hole where the bolt enters the fuselage is cracked.�(Photos 2-3)
�
I checked the left great attachment and the rubber has not ripped but the fiberglass around the front hole where the bolt enters the fuselage is also cracked. (Photos 5-6)
�
The top part of�both bolts inside the fuselage look the same as they have been�during every condition inspection. (photos 4 &�7)
�
Not being a fiberglass guy my question is this a safety of flight issue? I am not flying the airplane until I get a better idea of what I am up against.
�
Any help/recommendations are very welcome. No matter what, I will have to get someone nearby to fix this for me since again, I am not a fiberglass guy.
