Default Real lightweight carbon fibre body parts

To suit 06 pignose. Looking for proper lightweight carbon bonnet and boot lid. No I don't want seibon/china fibreglass with a carbon top sheet I want the real deal. Anyone know who makes them? Have seen Varis one thus far.

thanks

Jme

The Varis carbon fibre stuff I got for the evo was excellent.

Copy front lip weighs a ton more than mine (and doesn't fit/line up the same).

Isn't there a guy on site that fabricates? Check trainwrex thread.

Not sure on the weight but you can check with them, they are based in SG/JP.

Jamie there was a guy that came into JWS back in 2004 who made carbon fibre panels, his work was truly first class.

I think I have one of his business cards at home.

I'll try and find it and text you the details.

Let's hope he is still in business.
