Default how much would you be willing?

to pay for a set of carbon fibre fenders? As some know, I have been working with doing some molding of tib parts for my own project.. and I was thinking of making a set of fenders for myself JUST so I could insert a set of turnsignal repeaters INTO the fender some instead of just screwing them to the outside of the sheet metal..

so how about it.. if I were to make up some set of stock appearing carbon fibre front fenders for the RD series Tiburon... how much would people be willing to spend and how many people would want some? I am looking at mid fall at the earliest for a set of mockups.

I'd be down for a set for my '01. I figure with these, a CF hood and the CF hatch that MaierApril was looking in to, I can shave some decent weight while retaining my full interior.

$400? That's half a hatch! :shocked: just kidding...

I would be interested. I thought about going CF hood and fenders, but I wouldn't be able to get in this... my sideskirts are molded to my fenders :depressed:
Good luck on this though

think we'll ever get a CF body kit? :lol: that'd be about the only choice left...
we already have CF hood and hatch, fenders and body kit would set it off... especially with CF APC tails

hmmmm....

Im starting to hate how cf looks. So I'd paint them anyway, and it'd be senseless. Maybe if I decide not to use the vented fenders Im getting sometime this century, :hmmm: I'll go for them. $400 sounds pretty good.

I am no fan of how CF looks either.. I only want to use it for the strength
