i didn't think anyone would like the 'blended in' carbon fiber i did since there were no responses to it after i posted it in the original topic that CHROMETIDE posted in here...
and CHROMETIDE, thanks for providing the link to the original topic...i was gonna say, i just did numerous photoshops on this subject just over a week or so ago...

The problem with making a "one off" carbon fiber front lip is the cost of tooling up. You could make a one off...but it would cost you buku bucks to pay for the tooling to get the job started (mold costs, ect). I have been looking into the feasibility of producing a front lip in carbon fiber for quite some time now, but due to schedule load I havent started the project yet beyond feasibility studies. The mold production costs for a lip of this size is very expensive....to do a one off would be almost prohibitive.

I am also fabricating a replacement aluminum bottom lip - you know...the part you scrape going up curbs on the very bottom of the front end thats black plastic. Its just a flat peice that attaches near the bottom of the radiator. Two reasons....no flex at 100mph+ speeds and just to see what it will look like?
Should be easy to do and fairly cheap to make too?

Hood and Grill
Ron did this for me on another thread. I'm thinking about painting my anthracite grill and bottom grey plastic on bumper black. How can I do the hood/ do i have to buy a CF hood or is there some other way? what do you guys think?
