Carbon composite parts?

Dan Z Man · 11-08-2010, 11:59 PM

we also need a real good carbon hatch..like really good, good fitment, good weight..hoods are easy, everyone and there mom does it(although it would be nice to see a high quality product)..you rarely ever see the hatch done..also carbon fiber front fenders as well, maybe like with options, oem style, 10-15mm wider but oem style fenders, stuff like that, i can tell you right now, good quality(*with also good weight savings*) you will most definitely have my business

This.

Something like this would be a big winner.

If you did front and rear fenders that would be perfect.

for instance take the front fenders and pull them an extra 1" on both sides and take the rear fenders and pull them an extra 2" on each side. That you will definitely get some interest in!!!!

+1 for vented hood that's cosmetically pleasing and functional. I've heard horror stories about CF hoods warping due to environmental factors which is why I'm still stock.

Wider dry cf front and rear fenders, What about a functional rear diffuser that actually functions. Do you have access to wind tunnels since you do carbon partsa for race cars? I would definitely be interested in all those items.

1) post detailed pictures of your work
2) estimate pricing for a variety of different pieces to give people an idea of what "much higher than your typical Chinese part" really means

Feel free to send me parts to test and keep afterwards

heres some photos as you requested

ugh..why did you have to show a pic about a viper..ugh..

anywayssss lol, i'm telling you right now, if you can make something along the lines of this, and have good proven gains, i will buy it tomorrow..obviously not exactly like this, different engine set up obviously. BUT something amazing, different, crazy, something out of the norm like this.. proven to be one of the best intakes for the s2000, and to be honest, i think it looks so amazing

i'm tellin ya, something crazy like this would be awesome

Like everyone else I would like to see a good carbonfiber hood with vents that keeps the stock hood lines. I have also been looking for some well built
F1 style front fenders like I have for my 300zx. But some small items that would be nice is really carbonfiber panels not the cheap stick on junk everyone else makes. Like maybe really carbonfiber side mirrors or some interior panels around the dash and head unit. Anything that is well built and replaces the part and does not just covers it up. idk just some ideas.

You should gt in touch with MRWorks about the possibiliy of doing their GTR Fenders. I know the reason they were looking for someone domestic they could trust with quality control and cost.

Their fenders would look badass in carbon.

Nismo221 · 11-10-2010, 02:05 PM

carbonfiber headlight housing!

bullitt5897 · 11-10-2010, 02:32 PM

I would buy a CF Roof Replacement if you guys made one... It would be one of the easiest parts to make too.
