depending on price, and yeah a battery cover would be nice too

 

How?

That was a thermo graphic transfer...not real CF.

Are you just kidding with me?

 

Guys please dont start shit in this thread. I want to see this come to fruition, I want one badly.

Too bad the P2R plenums wouldnt fit under these

 

update?

 

At the moment we are waiting on the fabricator to get his hands on an engine cover locally. If this doesn't happen then I will ship mine to him. I'll keep you guys posted.

 

Where is the fabricator located?

 

He's in southern California.

 

Corsair doesn't accept PM's...I left him a Visitor Message.

 

lol

 

Shit.. If you can make one for the 99 Manifold, I'll get it..

 

I have an engine cover and I live in southern Cali!

 

Count me in, but will the cover fit a 99?

whats the update on this?

 

My contact is still waiting on the fabricator. The fabricator has the cover and is currently working on some other project that have pulled him away from this one.

 

did we ever clarify which engine cover will be produced? type s or p?

 

any idea how much the engine cover would be ?

 

Hey Nuckz23

I contacted another member on another forum who said he could manufacturer CF pieces.

He replied...

hey man,
I would need to see a picture of one,top and bottom,and how they sit on the engine.
then i would say a price.

But for example; i just extended a wing 2" and wrapped it in a week time.so I get things done.

Thanks,

 

If anybody has access to a cover that is already removed...can you take some pics?


I just sent him a reply back because the word "wrapped" has me confused...

 

Yea i was at my import store today checking out books and i seen some guys that can do carbon fiber anything but thing is price is probably up there.

 

So I checked with the other guy and took a look at his thread...

This is a "wrapped" CF...

Basically, OEM part but is wrapped in Real CF and then resin, sanded, buffed, whatever.

So the look of CF but not the weight savings of Real CF.

This option would be cheaper I would imagine then the traditional method.

I don't know how I feel about it but here is a gas lid he did..





There is something unfinished about it that I don't like...but hopefully he has some better stuff that hasn't been posted yet.

 

I was gonna say the same thing. It's like its missing something in the finishing of it

 

so whats the point to this method? just looks? hell you could buy the CF sticker stuff and put it on ur engine cover...

I still havent been able to justify spending $650 on plenums

 

I want this to happen so bad

 

For the engine cover...you aren't looking for performance in a CF engine cover.

So from the start...it was all about looks.

Well...the stickers or vinyl just don't look right.

Me too...hopefully we can get a sensible price.

 

Thanks for all your efforts nf3d0149ab. To answer a few questions, the original plan was to have an engine cover made for the TL-S. I'm sure the fabricator can make them for a TL-P as well. The plan is to have the CF cover replace the existing plastic engine cover rather than wrap it in carbon. At the moment we are waiting on the fabricator to get back to us with an update. He currently has an engine cover in hand. As many of you know, carbon fiber products are not cheap. I started this thread to get an idea of how many were intersted so that the cost would be as low as possible. If you ask me, I think the cost would be somewhere between $250-500 depending on the amount of people who actually go forward with the purchase.

 

holllyyyy dang... for 100-150 count me in
but for around 500 thats just one step closer for me to getting a built in navi/dvd player so i may have to pass if it costs that much
