I would be interested in a set of CF door panels, depending on the price.

Would they just be the sheets with NOTHING cut out (door handles/opener bits/window winders)? Would be better as it allows people the flexibility to do what they want with them... I have electric windows so dont really need the window winder holes...

Cheers,
Sam C

Good stuff, keep us posted.

It wouldnt be a big deal to cut the holes for handles etc yourself as carbon fibre is very easy to work using a dremmel or some other brand of high speed rotary tool.... Just remember the dust mask and goggles (the dust is very bad for your lungs, and apparently is horrible if it gets in your eyes).

These were not from LA Performance.. The airdam on the car was from LA Performance and is still perfect... Would more than happily buy more carbon from LAPerformance.

The parts with problems were from Carbon Joe, and were fine until I left them out in the UK weather (rain then sun cooked salty marks into them!)...
They are now sealed properly, so shouldnt suffer from this issue again... Dont believe they were waxed or lacquered!!! (so unprotected)


Sorry I didnt clarify this in the initial post, which wasnt posted as a slag off, more as a how to for others who may experience this issue.



**EDIT - I think I have (yet again) managed to get the wrong end of the stick.... BugFOOL was doing the slagging.

Cheers,
SAm C
