Is this group a sponsor for you are you dishing out the $ all on your own. That looks crazy, but really nice! Very CF'ish. :) :tiphat:

I have a CF addiction and these pics sent my blood pressure through the roof
very nice |
OMG!!!!! beautiful man... i hate you lol ;)

You misunderstood. Aerojacket offers the amuse kit. Well if you visit eBay and u will find hundreds of amuse kit not related to aero jacket an those replicas have issues according to members. Well Aerojacket has an excellent fitment on amuse
Kit. Meaning their kits fit better without having to modify it. Aero jacket is not associated with carbon fiber element. They produce aftermarket exterior parts. I purchased these parts like a normal customer. Same with wheels and etc. The car is not sponsored. In fact I turned down a Seibon sponsorship because of an unethical part on there end and decided I would rather achieve it on my own. The hatch, rear quarter and doors will be the last remaining red panels..until the winter seaso . The quarter panels are the tricky ones and it's vein projected that a mold in fiberglass will be done first the we would Wrap that mold In carbon fiber. It's tricky... But that's the plan along with hatch and door :) This car is my car no contract obligations or sponsors. However I'll take a twin turbo sponsor anytime ;). Wink wink |

The car looks sick! Great job. Can't wait to see how it looks when it's all done.
How much weight does all this CF take off overall? |
Happy to see someone keeping the CF and red Z combo alive. The hatch can be replaced with a CF part its the rear quarter that will be the issue. You can't simply vinyl it because most vinyl is matte whereas the rest of the parts are gloss. Vinyl also lacks the depth and "3D effect" of real CF. Its a pretty tight seam with the rear bumper but a cap seems to be the best way to go, something similar to the roof cap.
The real question is always weight savings. I grudgingly admit after doing this myself, you don't save a whole lot. You'll save mostly on the hatch, a little on the doors and fenders (less than 5lbs. each door/fender) but the bumpers and skirts are plastic. If you love the look then this look is for you. Mind you, it is still a noticeable weight difference, best bang for the buck weight reducing mod is a braille battery. |

No idea on weight. The interior is all wrapped and the exterior stock stuff was light, not sure if you have every weighed the stock panels but they are pretty light. And when im on a diet weight reduction is more lol |

I know the quarter cant be wrapped ;) I posted my plans for the quarter. Fiberglass mold that will be made on the car and then removed. Then making that mold carbon fiber and applying it back on the car. It will be more of an over but THAT IS ALL THAT CAN BE DONE lol ive looked into removal and etc. Quarter panel is part of the frame. Its tricky The hatch and doors are product I COULD purchase from Seibon but unfortunately we had a dispute about an order and I decided to cancel the order and take my business else where. I will have those taken care of though, no worries ;) The roof was a big challenge but thats carbon fiber so anything is possible. Just give it time :) FYI the roof is NOT A CAP... :) we removed the windshield and rear hatch to have the carbon fiber work done to it |
Pretty sweet dood!
Love the wheels too. Definitely gonna keep my eyes open for more pics and updates |
you cut out the original roof and replaced it with a carbon piece?!? HARDCORE! I APPROVE!

lol not quite we wrapped it which was the plan with the quarter panels but the panels cant be removed so thats the issue. That would be badass and save alot of work but I dont want to risk damaging the cars structure. |
you seem better suited for the task then I was, godspeed dude
|
:yum::happydance::driving:
|
I don't like alot of CF but this seems a flawless job
|
looks good
|
Wow, just wow.
|

Fail. I was hoping for something a little more AGGRESSIVE. |
super jealous haha that looks really good man! I have the carbon fiber bug lately...
