Carbon Fiber Fenders anyone?

Post by cjthor »

I was talking to John at G3 racing (the guy making out CF hoods) and I was asking him about CF fenders. He said that his company was going to start making fenders in about three months. I dont have a price or anything, just wondering if I possibly started a group buy would anyone be interested? I am definately still workin on the CF tails but that is a different company.

carbon fiber fenders? I thin thats a taking it a bit to far. Soon the whole front end is gonna be carbon fiber and youll look ridiculous lol. Besides I believe carbon fiber will be going out of style. Since modifying cars is becomming so commercial, people are gonna revert back to when things were a littel simpler, and your car didnt have to have 3 colors, and 5 amps to be cool. Im debating wether Ill still like cars or not after FF2 comes out. There going to market car parts stamped with the fast and the furious 2 name on htem ,jesus...apc rox!!!
