OK, I got to page 7 and could not handle any more....

But what I was thinking would be cool is an engine cover like I saw in my friends 01 VW golf - just the top of the engine showed and a place for the dipsticks

Im suppose to get the molds back beginning of next week. SO shortly after that Ill have the parts ready. A,B,C pillars, rear speaker deck will definatly be ready. Im working on the door inserts myself, they may be ready a little after that.kinda running behind on them due to holiday shopping. As far as prices, im not sure yet. But this is what Im thinking....

$125 for the A pillars
$125 for the B pillars
$125 for the C pillars
$300 for the rear deck

I just saw some CF pillars on ebay for a rx7 for $299. LOL thats rediculous. not at all sure about the door inserts

I was thinking that same exact tihng today when I was cleaning my engine bay! That would be killer.. I doubt it would be too difficlut also.. just s plain sheet of CF with a cut out of the head and maybe a cut out for the filter on a CAI.

I dont know if this has been covered on here yet or not but can you get different color carbon fiber if someone wants it? I personally would like to have a black/silver weave if you can do it. If so would there be an extra cost involved. Thanks alot

I know, When the parts are ready, I am going to. Ive already talked to Derek.

I can do the colors, but there will be an extra charge, the colors cost more than the regular CF, and are harder to work with because the Kevlar in it is harder to wet out.

What colors can you do?

Ex: If I wanted green/black CF, you could do that? How much more is it to color than to just regular CF?

Yes, i can do green/black, orange/black, yellow/black, red/black, blue/black, and solid yellow, and solid silver.


Custom colors will not add a charge to the part itself, but I would ask that you pay for the yard of fabric since I dont keep it on hand and have to special order it. I dont want to buy a yard offabric and make one small part and get stuck with the rest of it and never use it. 2 yards would probably do all 6 pillars andthe rear deck just to give you an example. Here are some o pics of the fabrics.

New CF Parts *Updated w/pics*

Hey guys , just pulled the A pillars out of the molds. Heres a couple of pics. I have all of the molds now. Im about lay out the rest of the parts, should all be finished and ready to go by Tuesday. I still have to pay the vendors fees before I sell them. But feel free to PM me with any ?'s. Parts in the pics still need to be clearcoated, so they are not a finished product, but fitment is perfect, and they look really sweet installed. Im making the mold now for the CF eyelids too, theyll be ready this week as well. I remember someone on here saying they were going to make some. But Ill beat everyone elses prices on those. More pics tomorrow.

A, B and C pillars,......eyelids and the rear speaker deck will be ready this week. Hopefully Ill have 1 of each part ready on Tuesday and post all the pics up. Im still working on the door inserts, that will be awhile. As far as price, not sure yet, im gonna wait until I have everything done so I can see how much it costs to build the parts. Prices will be good though. Im guessing the A pillars, B pillars, C pillars to be $125 set. Rear speaker deck will be around $300(Fiber Images=$600, big difference). Eyelids, around $40.

Parts will also be available in gel coated fiberglass, for those who like the painted look over the CF. I also paint, so I can factory match the colors as well.

I have to pay the vendor fees on here before I can sell any, planning on that Tuesday. I will also consider trades I need an intake preferrably K&N, headers and a DC sports strut bar so ya know.
