We tried the cannards on our old white hatch when we lived in Florida. It didn't look so hot.


So far, I haven't seen any worthy shops in Chicago and the scene is poorly organized. My best bet is driving back down to Florida where I know good shops. I don't trust ebay that much when it comes to quality of the carbon fiber. And indeed I'll be posting pics. Mainly they will be in my vbgarage section.
i think the cannards look ok... maybe not on a stock looking hatch - maybe if you had cf mirrors and spoiler. maybe a lip kit...
some ebay cf is really good. i bought a hood from ebay... took a hell of a long time (4 months) and cost an arm and a leg, but its really unique and the finish quality is better than alot of hoods i've seen.
i've also seen an abs dash cover that could easily be cover in cf - no molds. just sand, resin, lay the cf, and clear coat. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=43952&item=7968635139&rd=1

you can also buy cf vinyl that you can trim out some upholstery with. did you check out the meanstreet door panels? meanstreet.net >> body parts >> carbon fiber parts/misc...

gl w/ the project.

Well I did NOTHING with the interior other than put in front and rear leather GSR seats. I stuck with the CF hood, mirrors, and wing like I said I would.



I'm just a little :oops: after looking back at my "potential" ideas I had for my hatch. :lol:
