Custom Carbon Pieces

The battery tie is solid, functional and super light compared to the stock piece. The fuse box cover is for aesthetics only. It is flexible so you can unlatch the cover. Both made out of 3x3 twill weave real carbon. Not that fake chitty glittery carbon hoods you see. This is the aerospace stuff from fibreglast.com. Look out for my all CF airbox! PM me if interested in any of these as I have extras. Flame on if you like!

It's dark as heck outside so the pics kind of suck.




Bending the edge to show flexibility on the fuse cover.

Close up.

you can buy sheets of carbon fiber and cut them how you wish to make similar things, my friends over at namotorsports.net sell it. Kinda cool.

Thanks, do you see me saying, "you can buy stickers at the mall, local race shop or ebay?" You just lost my vote for ROTM!

lol J/K man see you on the "other site."

It's more difficult to buy the ones that can flex or made solid like the battery tie. Mine also do not have the "texture" like the one sold on the link, it is completely embedded into the resin for a perfect high gloss surface. Everyone else PM me if interested.
