Default Anyone interested in Carbon Fiber Sideskirts for CRX's?

Looking to see whatkind of Carbon Fiber products that are not very popular with big corp's, would be popular for you guys. I am looking into making C/F Hoods, and lips right now, but I was wondering if the stock sideskirts or maybe even the Mugen ones in Carbon Fiber would be a selling point on here?? Please let me know what you would want made out of carbon fiber. Be realistic in your thoughts because I am about to begin producing lips for CRX's right now.

if i could give you any advice on doing this you better make them as cheap as possible. a lot of people would say they are interested, but as soon as you make them and ask a decent price you will soon discover you have no one to sell them to. just some advice from what ive seen on here.

I wanna see a "cheaper" but same quality sunroof plug.
The lips I hope you really make.
door sash as mentioned above.
The roof liner would look pretty sweet I think.

yeah I agree definatly the b pillars (door things that guy was refering too) 88-89 are different from the 90-91 and there are two peices per side. side skirts maybe? I'd say a gauge bezel it once again 2 different styles 88-89 90-91. why nobody makes one is beyond me. also the cargo cover is a good idea.

That seems kinda steep, half the price of a whole jdm front end.

Carbon lip for an EF hatch would be dope...but pix would help alot.
I'd be down for buying a carbon wing for the EF hatch also.

a hood is one thing. something thats relatively big and reduces a little bit of weight. but when you are talking about a front lip or some carbon fiber window things and ask 300 for a lip most people can't see it. especially when i know a good amount are more interested in engine modification rather than body add ons.

haha... patches of CF here and there look kind of ridiculous if you ask me. An affordable JDM style hood that fits USDM cars is all i ask! I think the only company that makes them is Fiber Images??
