Default i made some carbon fiber blockoffs for my car..thinking about selling them

anyone interested?

i made a eg radio blockoff and tomorrow im making an ecu cover....its quality 3mm thick carbon fiber with the tightest weave ive ever seen..this is real deal multi layered carbon fiber..not one layer of carbon and a fiber glass back..you can see all of the 10-15 layers and its carbon on both sides..matt finish...if you dont know how thick 3mm is take 2 quarters and lay them on top of eachother..look at the edges together thats excatly 3mm thick

ill have pics up this week

im thinking about selling the eg,ef,dc,radio blockoffs for 25 bucks shipped what do u guys think? are you interested?..if there is alot of interest..i might make 3mm thick carbon climate control blockoff's,battery tie downs..etc..etc...

radio blockoff=$25.00 shipped..eg,ef,ek,dc
ecu cover=$50.00 shipped(i need to know what ecu u have because some are longer then others)


Pics:
1st pic is the best pic of the eg radio blockoff that was developed(its the best i can do for not having a digital camera)
2nd pic is a pretty damn good pic of the ecu top plate for my jdm p30
3rd pic is of the carbon fiber weave..i scanned it so it looks huge but for a refrence of how tight the weave is the green tape pictures is about an inch and a half wide thats super tight...i had some pics of the thicknees compared to nickels and quarters but they didnt come out ...i hate the girl at walgreens photolab ..but hey atleast i have pics

how about a pock in CF where the radio goes?

instead of wasting that space by blocking it off.

im not gonna make any air bag trays (not worth my time) so stop pm'ing or asking for them


actually today i was thinking about making a trim piece out of carbon fiber that will hold a gsr pocket(the one thats below the radio)..its smaller then the eg radio opening..so id have to make a eg blockoff and then cut out the center to flush mount the gsr pocket..if i decide to make one of these ill sell them....for everyone asking for pics...im working on it..with work all day and barely enough time to wash my *** after work its hard to find free time..but im workin on it

thats pretty cool..but autometer makes angle cups to angle the guages towards the driver..thats what id be using..plus the carbon fiber on a hood is cheap quality compared to the stuff i use...the stuff i use is the same stuff used to make indy car body's...its high quality unlike a 1 layer hood with a fiberglass backround...but props on your diy

awesome. sounds good. Even if you don't have a cover, just something that goes into the hole in the dash behind the radio would rock

plus i have to use up the first small shett i have so i can buy a bigger sheet and make alot more and possible even bigger parts..but for now all im making is radio blockoff's and other small panels..is anyone interested in the carbon fiber ecu cover's?..i havent made mine yet but im excited to see the finished product
