Question Carbon Fiber side moldings

Would anyone be interested in such a thing? S4 or S5... either way. But that might be something interesting to do. You wouldn't know it was CF until you were somewhat close to it.

There is also flexible resin that can be used so doors would be able to hit it w/out damage.

I'd probably do this on my car to go with the other stuff I've got ideas for. But it would probably just be the sides. 5 pieces per side, 10 total pieces. Shoot for under $200 in price for the "kit".

I will also look into other lenses that are the same height, but maybe a little longer. That way I could find a clear lense that would fit right in, but be affordable. $60 is spendy for a pair of lenses.

Thoughts?

Interesting.... seems a little too "carbon fiber everything" for my tastes tho... and if you are afraid of your car getting hit, you shouldn't be parking it there... (j/k)
...or you can always drive a ghetto 7 like mine, then it really doesn't matter too much anyway...

Well it would be a replacement for the stock ones. It's just a matter of having a pice that would be damaged from being hit. W/ the flexible resin that would not be of concern anymore.

Interesting were my thoughts exactly heh. If you guys seem interested in it I'll probably get it going here pretty soon.

well considering my car is so bloody ghetto right now, I doubt that I'll be buying (clutch comes first... ) but I'm sure some one out there will want it...

....worst comes to worst you could always sell it to civic owners... tell them it adds 10 hp, and lightness all at once..
