Default EG Hatch Carbon Fiber Front End

Where can one find a Carbon Fiber front end? Strada, Exospeed, or any other brand front end that allows for larger tires and bigger FMI? I Have heard nothing but bad things about both these company's so any help in locating one would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance

Eric

I can get an EG carbon open front made through an alternate source, but lead time is 3-4 weeks and due to the high cost involved with carbon, I refuse to stock them.

I do, but I haven't done carbon just yet. Joe has another guy that does work for him you can always trust Joe.

We will get to carbon one day, just gotta finish all the main chassis first
