Dude, you owe me a keyboard. This one has gunk all over it now.

C'mon make some 1st Gen stuff. You can use my decklid, hood and bumpers for templates.

Thanks guys, the bumpers stock weigh a total of 17 lbs, which includes the rear and 2 front bumperetes, the Carbon ones weigh in at about 3 lbs total. Here are some shots of my car. I also made a radiator cover and trunk lid out of carbon fiber. As for production parts, probably not going to happen. The proffit margin, the toxisity of the materials, and the fact that i have a day job all prevent this from being full time. I do prototype work and composite work is something that I do do for a living, but it is usually one off custom stuff that gets really expensive. Glad to hear your support, Damn True we talked about a hood, better save some cash, instead of spending all that money on that killer turbo system!!!!

I'm not doing a Turbo, I'm saving money for Carbon Fiber.
