I know evilcreations has some ultra wide cf fenders that he made himself. Not sure if he has any for sale. Theyre designed to fit huge tires. I had seen another guy with some milder ones, but he said the company he got them from has been out of business for awhile. I'm sure theyre out there, but surely very expensive and quite rare.

There's a guy on here that does all kinds of stuff in CF. Off the bat I can't remember who but he's always trying to sell it in the "parts for sale" thread. Last I saw he had B and C pillars in CF.
Maybe see if he'll fab you up some.
Otherwise good luck. Carbon Creations HAD some but not anymore, I checked before I posted. Maybe check VFiber? IDK.
If you find 'em let us know! :thumbup:

you're probably talking about riceeater, he had been talking about doing fenders, but I havn't seen anything from him in a while. Looks like its time to get some made.

Yeah..he was saying how he is back, blah blah blah. And then he just left out of the blue....

As for CF fenders.... I don't know man. :lol:

Are you going to go all out on weight reduction?

Not all-out, just want to offset the weight of mods so I'm not canceling out HP gains. Plus I love the look of it. I want fenders, full lips, trunk and PVO, b and c pillars, fog surrounds, eyelids, and some underhood stuff. Got a injector cover on the way and seriously contemplating a mopar valve cover.

Can we get CF smileys too? :thumbup:

lol most of the parts are a weight savings, or removable for the track, even tho the weight is negligable (like the fog surrounds and injector cover), and i havn't seen any sideskirts, altho i have seen a nice front lip overlay.

the B and C pillars are mainly becuase i can never get the B's to not have what appears to be oil slicks on them. and if i do those, i have to do the C's, or it won't look right.

and the mopar valve cover is just plain sex.

all in all, if i can pull another 20 pounds off the car, it'll offset the 3" exhaust weight. plus there's still the interior to pull on track days. not fully gutted, but no seats, spare tire or jack. every little tenth gets me closer to my goal of 12's on stock computer/turbo. then the fun part starts.

but i really like the look of CF fenders. seen some on a black evo with hood and trunk, it looked sick. i'm curious what it'll look like on a white car.

anyone seen the street tuner challange where they did a lancer with carbon fiber doors all the way around? that would be sick, but that's asking too much. can't afford that.

fiberglass ftl. Won't match the theme of the rest of the car.

Yeah, there's going to be a lot of cbd stuff on the car.
