    Can't do quarter and rocker panels in f/g or c/f. They have to be welded in.

    I like the idea of interior door panels and a center console that goes up to the lower dash tray with 1 or maybe 2 cup holders, cut outs for a modern stereo and maybe some other gauges or just a clock. The door panels would look good if you made them with a removable piece (where top insert goes) that can be upholsterd to the buyers choice. I also like the mirrors and will probably get a set (depending on the cost).

    lol! they don't know what kevlar looks like anyways... ;)

    out of the question for right now.

    if fenders are a dealo in the future the only reason to do them in carbon would be the fitment. other then that i sure hope people would paint these... ;)

    interior door panels is something anyone could do themselfs... if you are interested i can get hand lam sheets of CF 4x6.... the problem is the cost to ship them would be crazy too. :x

    ray just send me off the mirrors... i'm on this like flys on... er... :D

    maverick man, I may pick up a cherry 74 this weekend. If I do, you're welcome to use it for fitment for the spoiler piece.

    some custom stuff would be cool such as a rear decklid (under the windshield) or in the truck box of some sort to stealthily add some subs or good speakers for a system that would look sweet and custom or stealth.

    ok love all the ideas guys but right now i'm going to try to get a cost on what a set of mirrors would run.

    anyways i saw the guy i know that acutally does the acutal mirror part. he is getting me a quote on the size and quanity i will be needing...

    there are so many options on it though

    Convex, Concave, Blue Tint, Normal Etc. i'm just going to see what is best and most cost effective. either way i'm working on it. no promises though... it might end up like the boomerang project... though i may try to attempt that again.

    btw just a questions for some of you guys... the top part of the mirror for a mustang is the same right? just the base is differant. are the bases interchangeable?

    I'm working on a fiberglass console that goes all the way to the front of the back seat. I'll have pics soon, and a mold to make more if anyone wants them then....

    A carbon fiber dash pad would be excellent....

    i'd take a set of triangle window louvers....

    carbon fiber replacement ash tray... *grins...

    tail light bezels and headlight trim pieces....

    window molding... instead of the stainless, have the carbon fiber.... hummanah hummanah....

    i'll be happy to get the grabber hood and rear spoilers....ohh yeah.

    make me a gas cap. battery cover, window cranks, e-brake handle, maverick emblems so i could have a carbon one on my dash and fenders...

    Blue Tint would be cool looking.
