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.

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.

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?

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.

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.

Would you consider doing some parts in Fiberglass vs KF?

Just a thought, specially that dash
