Any interest in carbon fiber parts?

Post by **ChineseBuffet** » Tue May 22, 2007 5:15 pm

I'm just curious to see if anyone is interested in Versa carbon fiber parts, not neccesary hoods or trunks but smaller interior parts like gas door, door sills, dash bezel, engine covers, air intakes, etc. Any ideas on parts not only for esthectics but funtionality as well?

Would anyone be interested in parts like this?

i would be interested in gas doors and other parts like the car handles.

I would be as well. Mostly interior or engine dress-up though. I have white and the carbon stuff would be a little much for me.

Noticing your from Hamilton, I'd definetly be interested as I am in Oakville.

Hood would be so sick. How much you think it would cost after fabrication?

prolly $650+ Carbon Fiber supplies are scarce right now and VERY expensive.

There was another poll, for gauging interest in an AEM CAI group buy that got locked (zerothread?id=250696). Ya MIIIIIIGHT want to talk to a moderator first about this one before we go any further.

If you are suggesting that you can make them yourself, then I believe you need permission to sell here (become a sponsor?). If you are a middleman for someone else, we might have problems. Not really sure what the rules are, just want to keep you from getting the thread locked.

There's a slight difference in this thread. He is gauging interest in non-specific parts that have not been built yet. The other thread was gauging interest in a group buy on a specific part that 1) NICOers in general already get a good deal on and 2) is a part that is supplied by one of our official sponsors and 3) he himself was not an official sponsor.

Well.....in that case, DEFINITELY interested. I think that a CF CAI is kinda unnecessary. I would love a new rear hatch though.....

(after all, if Carbon Fiber is for weight savings, that would make a HUGE difference)

Why not just make the whole darn car out of Carbon Fiber!????

But seriously I am waiting to see if anybody actually makes a CF hood and Hatch!

raptor79: I'm not selling anything. Which part of my original post made you think that I was trying to sell parts? I was just curious to see if the members of this forum has an interest in carbon fibre parts for their Versa.

Clipsed: The first three picture I posted was meant to be used as an example of carbon fibre parts I was describing in the paragraph above. Does posting the pics automatically imply the car in the picture is mine and I have a "POS P&P HID kit" installed?

My apologies if I misunderstood, usually when someone says "any interest in......(insert item)?" It is followed by "only $299.50, message me for contact details".

This just after someone else was trying to organize a group buy on an AEM CAI. I was suspicious, and had my hackles up. I saw that you had few posts, like me, and maybe were unaware of sponsorship requirements.

If I came off as rude, or paranoid, then I apologize. I was trying to do what I believed the right thing for everyone involved.

I am actually interested in CF parts though. I would like a new hatch or hood, and am contemplating replacing the silver trim across the dash and steering wheel with CF.

I have to wait until I get out to Cali though, we have a move coming up and that is going to take all of our savings.

Looking forward to talking to you again
