Default Carbon fiber..

Okay. So, I have a VIS carbon fiber hood for my 96 camaro, and am going to have it painted except for the sides of the cowl, and im going to change the theme of my car from silver and black to carbon fiber accents and black. Im not going ricer with it, but I want to put very small REAL carbon fiber accents on the interior and exterior of my car. And i've got a few questions to see if anyone knows someone who sells these items, or someone whos ever made / done them. Btw, this is a 1996 Camaro 3.8L RS.

Carbon Fiber Berger Mod
Carbon Fiber Battery Cover (RKsport is too damn expensive)
Carbon Fiber Door Sills (Rk sport too expensive yet again)
Carbon Fiber Valve Covers
Carbon Fiber Radiator Shroud
Carbon Fiber Fuse Box Cover (Under hood fuse box)
Carbon Fiber Gauge Bezel
Carbon Fiber RS Emblems (RKsport has a good price, but shipping is retarded)

Any other ideas are welcome, im looking for a very original look on a camaro without going overboard. Check out my cardomain in my sig for pics of my car.

Thats my C.F. Berger tail panel, it has better pics on P. 2, its not the best but I like it more since it's not common, and it goes good with my c.f. nose badge, doorsills, and grill which is carbon fiber.

Hey Joshua, sending a PM.

i know a place that currently has carbon fiber hatches for camaros. i think it be cool to paint it all and save some weight but leave two little stripes to match the hood. or leave the entire cowl exposed and have a fat stripe on the back. itd look like you had carbon fiber racing stripes i think itd be cool
