Some of you know me and what I'm capable of. I'm curious to see what most of you want done in CF.

A simple sentence will do

eg: Carbon fibre add-on lip to oem bumper

I'm actually working on a top-secret project for the mx-3. I have something to show now, but id rather wait until its further developed... Barry might have an idea... SHHH

lol that made me laugh


RE: CF products
few random ideas not sure if they have been mass produced or what not.

-CF guage bezel
-CF center console (i am working on rewiring my window switches to below the e brake, cF would be cool)
-CF rad support group buy, I imagine more people will jump on this if its brought forth)
-CF lip is a great idea!

Thats all off the top of my head

Seems like you were thinking about looks, not function.

Damn EGR.

The side mirror interior backing plates (The triangle pieces that cover where the driver and passenger side mirrors bolt on, if that makes sense).
I will keep thinking...

These are all good ideas. the CF Rad support was already done. This is a matter of piece work.

how many guys want a full CF rad support. We had perfected the layup and its not shoddy like the first batch.

id say 10 guys; $140 each + shipping. That's for full carbon fiber tip to tip. i was retailing these if im not mistaken for $160 + shipping and only CF on the interior. i hope thats clear.

i also have the gas cap in CF. you would replace your stock door but keep the mounting bracket portion. I can't even remember what I sold these for?/?

I like the hatch Idea, but we would need like 20 guys to offset the cost of just the mold on each part to make it reasonable. $600 + shipping is my guestimate and that would be for FG underside w/ glossy finish and all the mounting hardware already embedded, just like a CF hood would come.

I've got the MS bumper available to be done in CF as we speak but we will need to do at least 10 piece run for it to be worth the effort.

As we speak, there are only a couple of ppl interested in any one ite, not enough to justify the R&D behind tooling a mold... I remain optimistic.

I'd love a CF MS Bumper, but I race, and the last thing I'd want to do it damage that :S
