      Nope, as fake as Angelina Jolie's concern for the world.

      A place called VC Finishes does the Hydro-Emersion technique. MUCH cheaper then the real deal, looks almost as good and can coat almost anything.

      I just got an email from them last week.....IIRC, they quoted .40 per square inch!! pretty darn affordable, and at a fraction of the real thing. If weight is not an issue, and you only want the look of CF, check them out http://vcfinishes.com/_wsn/page4.html

      This time around all the pieces cost about $220 with shipping back to me. Not bad IMHO.

      Don't get me wrong, I'd love to have these in real CF, but I don't even want to know how much that would cost or if some of the parts could even be made from the real stuff.

      If anyone knows of someone looking to do these parts in real CF, let me know.

      Hey Kevin, how you doing??

      It's been awhile, hows the family?

      The plate we talked about would be going over the CF stuff I had covered. It think the combo or billet and CF would be awsome.

      You back to business?

      Glad to hear you may be approaching a sane schedule soon.

      One of my favorite quotes from one of my favorite movies.

      "My advice to you is to start drinking heavily", "I'd listen to him, he's pre-med, I thought he was pre-law... What's the difference?"

      LOL!!!

      I bought the stock plastic piece and could send to you for dimensions if it would help?? Let me know when you're ready.
