Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	A fibre-reinforced polymer composite component 2 formed from a polymer matrix material containing fibre reinforcement. The component 2 comprises a main portion 4 and at least one raised feature 6 extending from a surface plane s of said main portion 4. The at least one raised feature 6 is arranged to incur visually perceptible damage when the component 2 is subject to an impact with an energy above a predetermined impact energy threshold and to resist an impact with an energy below the predetermined impact energy threshold.
