for any style fo the 240sx. preferably s13 silvia style but it could be s15 for all I care or even 180sx style. Reason being is I want to build up a sil eighty race car and to keep it as light as possible I want to make as much carbon fiber. I have found carbon fiber hoods and hatches, but I can't find fenders.

Also are any other body parts available in carbon fiber? such as maybe doors, and bumpers? Maybe even carbon fiber body kits?

I would even settle for leads to fiberglass parts if carbon fiber ones are not made. It would seem wierd if no carbon fiber fenders were ever made though for a car that is so heavily modified and raced in japan.

oh god! chargespeed = sucks for fitmentI think you'd be better off with the importfan stuff. if you're gonna pay up the wazoo for bad fitment, might as well pay less initially

Ouch! They have definately improved compared to 2-3 years ago.

Since Christmas, my body kits I've got from them have had awesome fitment and required minimal mods.
