Carbon Fiber B pillars ready to order!

The weather stripping reinstalls on the new panels and then for installing it on the car instead of clips there will be 3M tape.

Black boarder! The super sharp turn and very small edges makes the cf look distored. If it were just an overlay there would be no black boarder but in person the black boarder really highlightes the CF.

Ill post pics when my photobucket is working >:/

No pics on gray yet But we can do carbon / kevlar! Right now we have blue and yellow in stock (enough to make B pillars)

We can also get green, silver (hexcel texcelium) and zylon/carbon. Lighter and stronger that carbon fiber (its a new fabric and that comes in bronze)

Did a little research, the Zylon stuff sounds great, but from what I saw its a little hard to work with? Making it not really all that practical to make something a little more complex out of?

The hexcel is going to be a little too reflexive for me.

Still looking at the carbon and the carbon kevlar though

We can work with zylon no problem. It is a tad thicker but for all the stuff we have so far. Its no problem. If we were making parts with a dozen tight turns then yes its difficult. But for rear valences, roofs, etc its no problemo.
