Question Carbon Fiber FRC

Does anyone know if there is a place to buy carbon fiber FRC's for f-bodies ( already cut)?

Cool

As far as I know I'm the ONLY source for Carbon Fiber or colored Kevlar FRC's made for f-bodies.

They are made in a mold using a heat/vaccum process. The highest quality.

Click my sig picture to see more details... but I'll show some pics.

Choose a color...

I had to reset my browser because it interprets those pics as being sexually suggestive! Very nice

In the pics it looks like the passanger side cover is cut in the back. Is it just the angle of the pic or is it really cut? I've got a set of CF fuel rail covers and I didn't have to cut them back there.

01 Red WS6 Yes they are cut. They are also made 1.5 inches shorter in the back compared to the Corvette version. They have a relief cut for the throttle body bracket. Smooth install.

02WikdZ- The prices are on my site.... $310.

I may not be in business much longer. If you guys want to get this stuff do it now. Tire kickers are going to lose out in the end..... trust me! ~Joshua

Why would you go out of business? I thought you just had a huge thread full of ideas of things you were going to try to produce.

Personal issues. I have (had) a beautiful wife of 2 months whom I've been engaged to for 3 years. She's decided that she doesn't want to be settled in married life. I'm going through a bitter divorce from a woman who thinks she is entitled to half my assets after just two months of a false marriage.

I also have a day job that is beginning to suffer.....

To top it off I don't really make much $$$ on this side business which eats up ALL my free time.

I'm in a world of hurt right now. Choices have to be made. ~Joshua

I'm sorry to hear about your tough personal situation. As someone who got married at 23 and has been through a lot with my wife, I understand how tough it can be sometimes. It's definitely something that must be worked at in order to make successful.

I think legally, she is only entitled to half of the assests accumulated while married, so if that's any consolation.

In the end, I hope you guys can work through it and try to resolve your situation. I'm not sure how old you are, but being married can be overwhelming at times, but it's worth it in the end if it's the right person.

FYI, we celebrated our 7th anniversary this past May and are expecting our first child sometime around Christmas.

Keep your head up and good luck.

Cool I can understand why you would do that after installing mine I thought it could have been easier if they were cut down some in the back to clear some of the wires
