Wonder if it would be a quick and economical way of producing custom shaped aero frames
It wouldn't. The quick and cheap way to make custom aero frames is to CNC mill structural foam to the desired shape minus a few mm, then wrap in pre-preg carbon fibre, bag it up, suck out all the air from the bag and cook until crisp.

Thats actually pretty interesting.
I Wonder if it would be a quick and economical way of producing custom shaped aero frames. 3D print a framework designed to optomise aero-Dynamics for a specific riders size, shape, and position. Then vacuum form a polymeric Outer layer over it.
