What about Carbon Fiber???
Can you guys show me where to get carbon fiber parts of any type??
I would also like to see pics of any trucks with carbon fiber parts.. Thanks guys.. I apoligize for this if it is too much of a import or ricer idea, but i think carbon fiber is cool as hell....And i understand that not everyone has that opinion Thanks again guys!

If I recall right, the only carbon fibre upgrade I have seen is the gauge bezel and maybe the glovebox door as well. Try Google and see what pops up. Later Doug

I can make just about anything you want out of Carbonfiber. I can do dash pad covers, glovebox door cover, bezel, ashtray covers, radiator cover plates, air cleaner lid covers, basically it does not duplicate the part only covers it for looks. The attached pic is of my glove box door. This is a raised weave style I created using a new method of curing. You can actually feel the weave it the surface. I can do them smooth too. Also, there are many weaves of carbonfiber.This one is a 5 HS, Twill is the most popular, 8HS is real tight, plain weave is pretty popular. If you want to see samples check out carb.com there are many carbon/kevlar blends that can add color to the piece. Also if you want the carbon look in other colors I can do fiberglass weave with any color added to the resin and or clearcoat.

Here it is a little farther away. I can do these for 75.00 ashtray to match 25.00 and bezels for 150.00. The reason the bezels are so high is the machining work involved making the circles etc. Radiator covers (would be like the stainless one in my truck but all carbonfiber) are 50.00.
