I have been working on some new carbon and glass parts for my 69 Camaro here is what I've come up with so far all parts are first class quality. A pillar covers, Core support closeout panel w access hole to radiator cap left or right side. Front brake cooling ducts complete system minus the hoses( Pretty cool setup these are used on a local SCCA car) for 14" rotors. Trunk filler panel that smoothes over the gas filler neck area. A really cool rear spoiler ( 2 variations)design I have never seen before. Any interrest in these? I'll post some pics up if there's some interest Everything except the spoiler is ready for production it should be ready by next week we are finishing up the molds this week. I only have pricing set on the trunk piece and a rough guess on the rest.

someone should make a filler panel. The section between the rear glass and trunk lid.

I've been thinking about brake cooling ducts. Interested in what you have there.

Lightweight fiberglass Rear spoiler that's 6" high on the sides and 5" in the center section but has the stock angles and curves. Similar to the NASCAR Nationwide Spoiler.

I will have pics of some samples of the closeout panel & brake cooling ducts along with prices late sunday or monday evening. We didn't expect this much interest so quickly....... I'm having some parts laid up tomorrow They will only be in glass for the sample pics all parts can be made either way. The spoiler is taking a bit longer than expected so it might be another week at the most. There is a possibility of 3 variations being made we are doing my original design first. Then we will work on the other two depending on the responses. I'm coming up with most of the design ideas,marketing and my brother's father inlaw is doing the actual manufacturing. Some of you have seen his work before @Barret Jackson and on bullrun ie the RCR Camaro and a carbon fiber/glass car called the ravenhawk.

Here's a link to the gas filler cover it was done in a clear gelcoat to keep the cost down and since it will likely be covered by carpet or trim it would be a waste It can be made of carbon fiber (or a solid gelcoat for painting) if you wish but it's so light there is no gain except the look. I have some ideas for some panels to go with this that will be coming in the near future soon as I get the spoiler finished up

We could and would like to do it I just need to see enough interest to make my investment back We are open to doing anything that is not currently being made or is different than what's already out.

Yes and no the mold just needs to have 3 plugs removed to convert it to a generic part. All you would have to do is drill your specific mounting hole in it to fit any spindle you have. Pics will be up later tonight I have to go pick the samples up later today.

Here's some pics I can get more if you want specific ones. I don't have any installed pics due to a camera mishap. I'm trying to locate someone that has some that will show them installed. First are the brake duct parts we chose to leave the placement of the intake ducts on the covers up to your personal preference. Therefore you will have to cut the hole where you want it and then bond the 2 parts together we have found that 3m 4240 works the best. these are made out of glass only for display. The carbon fiber pieces are the intakes the you would mount to the valance. If you want a bigger intake we have a box type opening that fits below the bumper. I just like the stealthy look to these. The closeout panel pics are also here It can be made 3 ways like it's shown or with a cut out for access for the radiator cap either on the left or the right. Any questions just pm me for my cell#

If I remeber correctly the first car these were tested on had a DSE subframe I think they use a C6 setup.

I finally got some pics of the rear spoiler. Ignore the holes they are just there for our use in making a template to use in locating the mounting holes. The center and smaller endcaps are of the actual plug we built the molds off of. The larger end caps are a actual finished piece minus the screw hole. They will come complete with stainless fastners and rubber washers to seal it. The center section mounts as a stock one would. We are looking at making both fiberglass and carbon fiber. PM me for contact info if you need any more detailed info. Thanks
