Default What other carbon parts would you like to see?

There are the carbon fiber parts that I'm currently working on
-the door sills
-the rear quarter window trim piece
-the inner sill (directly opposite outer sill) for cars with door mounted seat belts
-front pillar molding- anyone out there want it to hold gauges? How many?
-an ultra lightweight functional hatch (CRX)
-ultra light doors with crash beams, working windows, hinges, etc.
-normal and wide front fenders (3 inches wider on each side)

Anyone want any of the below-
inner door panel?
lower door cap?
cowl?
what else?

thanks
Ben

i'd be interested in these parts if they fit a hatch; a front lip/possibly a rear duckbill style spoiler, and the sunroof idea.

Front lip and Mugen style rear spoiler would be cool in carbon fiber.

I'll do a cluster cover, but you'll have to put up with the reflections in the windshield.
How many gauges on the pillar?
What year Teg console?
I'll do dashes on a custom basis, I can't really mass produce them.
The rear taillight center pieces would work if you don't mind circular backup lights
I got some work to do......

Do you to single pieces? I would be interested in a couple of very simple "blank-off" plates to replace the gauge cluster and the clock/vent piece above the heater controls.

I would probably get this off you the sametime I get the hatch for the CRX from you. I'd be curious in a CF dash as well.

The EF8 CRX SiR wing looks very reasonable to do. How does it attatch to the car?
Anyone have pictures/places that sell originals of the hatch wings that you are talking about?
As soon as I get the sills and other molding pieces going I'll look into the wing.
What do you guys think is a fair price for the wing?

Thanks
Ben

Anyone have a sunroof panel that they want to let me borrow for a couple days?
Give me an email if you are interested.
I'll be happy to make this piece but the local yards don't have any originals to work off of.

Remember the cluster covers are different from 88-89 and 90-91 civics, and also the crx is different.
3 guages on the pillar
94-up integra console(modified to fir without gap.) Also the console around the stereo would be cool
On the taillight center piece the hatchbacks dont have lights in them.

Also the black piece that surronds the guages would look cool in carbon fiber.
