Default Anyone know of a good Carbon Fiber guy in the area?

Not for little crap either... Basically I want someone who can make molds and produce larger (not as big as a hood) items from them. At least 8mil. CF, has to be stiff and strong.

Got any leads?

If you find a guy, have him make t-top replacements. Those would sell like hotcakes to the drag guys

Already said... Targa. It would replace t-tops for drag guys and be lighter (but you could keep the t-bar) or I will have a whole kit to just targa your car. Neil and I are working on it, should have his car done within the month or so...

Hit up Fiber Images in Palmdale. They do stuff from custom F1 pieces to ricer hoods/wings.
