Carbon fiber
 

Remmele-motorsport has some of the nicest parts I've seen anywhere, however; he doesn't ship to the U.S. . Perhaps the thought of a large order would change his mind? I know his stuff is pricey, but you get what you pay for, and some times it's worth the extra coin! Another option is to find someone in France that would be wiling to be the go between. Just a thought.

what are you looking at maybe i can cut you a deal i can work with cf stuff nothing much bigger than a door panel though.

im still looking for runningboards la has them but i can only see doing them with a gruppe buy. shipping from the uk costs more than the boards themselves.let me know cause i am interested if you can find some runningboards

was that post to me?

you had said you couldnt do anything bigger than door panels. i guess if you can get runningboards then sure.

I might be able to do a group buy on some running boards.

ill let carbon joe handle those if you wouold like some smaller part let me know

Joe? You dabbling in carbon again? Thought you gave us crazies up for higher pursuits?


Jeff-

I'm sorry, did I hear "carbon fiber W decklid".....?;)

Jason

joe that would be fabulous. also i sent you a pm.

Ooops, I forgot to mention I'd like a set too, of the running boards that is.

Jason

Ask, and you shall receive! Joe, Count me in, and if you get a wild hare ( and enough pre-sales) would you concider a run of, oh, lets say, everything that can be replaced on a bug?:D

Looking for headlight rings and running boards also.

HI jack.... it would be great if Joe would contact me about getting that 911 dash done, after two years...

oh man joe your got ur self into a pickle.

I'm thinking about it, my higher pursuits are done.


Yes, and also trying to get the 911 dash going.

Cool! Can't wait to see what you get going.


Jeff-

Joe, any interest in doing a new version of a Kamei style front spoiler? I think it could be done more modern and more GL than the shape currently available.

Jason

Joe, if you read this, I would also be interessted in a Kamei front spoiler in blye CF if possible.
The other products I have from you have a fantastic fit! :agree:

So has anyone heard from Joe? I was hoping to get some interest going on a group buy for C/F parts, soooooo..............?

nope... not in many months

Five days ago. See Post #16 above.

Jason,
Maybe, got any pics?

What parts are you looking for? Allot of this group buy thing depends on if I can get the cloth. There is a huge shortage of CF in the world right now and the cost has tripled sense the last time I ordered. I know colors are going to be hard to get and if I can get them the prices are almost four times what I was paying.


Email sent, still need to finish up the other half of the mold.

Good to hear from you Joe, I was begining to wonder. I don't know about the rest of the folks here, but what I'm looking for is paintable quality parts. I'll leave the bling to the ricers, thank you. So do you have an idea what the costs may be for a given part, and what parts can you make?

good to hear you may be back joe! glad the rest of things have been sorted out. even just bulk group buy items would probably make a bunch of people in the states happy. welcome back!

Thanks for the quick reply Joe. Could you pleas empty your inbox so I can contact you? ;)

I can make just about anything but what I'm not making is fenders or hoods. As far as paintable parts and clear coated parts the cost is the same because they use the same amount of carbon.

Thanks Zen, I think you wanted me to make something "cool" for you at one time. Still want it???

Sorry, box is now empty.

This is truely a bummer. The first time i saw your site (when it was up :P) I saw the CF hood and I knew I wanted that. At the time I didn't have a bug. Now I have had 2 since then and have been actively searching for a CF hood and you were the only one that I knew made them...only to find out you quit the buis... :( I hope you change your mind about the hood one of these days because I really want one.

At todays cost for carbon I wouldn't sell a hood for less then $1000.00 now if it's a decklid you want, I still have the mold. But I'm still waiting for some cloth.

Joe

Would you consider doing some parts in Fiberglass vs KF?

Just a thought, specially that dash :)
Alex

I figured that was about what it would cost for a hood. The deck lid would be cool too but I would rather save up for the hood. I can't imagine the deck lid costing to much less then the hood.

I'm going to have to develop it myself. The artistic part takes some time, it's much faster to just copy! So, when I get my fiberglass one made up, I'll holler at ya about the idea of a "carbon copy"!!!! Hhaahhhhha, I kill myself.

A deck lid for my '63 and some running boards would be nice. To bad about the fenders though, really could use those! What I meant about the "paintable parts" is, they don't have to be optically perfect, as i'm going to paint them.

:laugh: Funny, funny people...

Welcome back Carbon Joe. :agree:

yes! was just chatting with No_H2O about that last night. would love to get one. let me know what you need from me.

also, i am pulling together some contest prizes for...er, something people will find out about soon...but i will tell you early ;). let me know if you can assist. doesn't have to be anything extravagant. no biggy if you can't. you are already lining up to be a busy man again. :D

Wow!! Joe is back! :)

I'm very interested in a decklid (late model style) and bumpers to add to my pile of Carbon Joe CF parts :D

ahhhh this is sooo sweet I'm forsure starting to save up for some part :)

thanks Joe

and welcome back:laugh:
