Needs one more cut and buff.Starting assembly. Day time running lights,tailights,diffuser,door handles,badges,side blades,spoiler an extensions and wheels.Getting closer and weather is better.

Carbon fiber or black wheels would look great.This has been suggested to me.I'm on old school kind of guy who has to have his wheels shine.
I think the polished metal shows the depth of the wheel better.

Like a lot of people I started buying Carbon Fiber parts.Body panels where full C F.I bought stuff from Evo R and others that where covers that went over parts.Not happy with this.I wanted to get CF parts that no one made.After spending money on this stuff I bought equipment and materials to do my own CF.Laid out about $1500 to get started.Some of early attempts did not turn out well.
Gauge pod out of the mold tonight.Will be sanded and cleared.Sill plate showing what a finished piece looks like.

One thing I found out the hard way..Carbon Fiber conducts electricity.So if you are using a CF battery cover.Take care to not make contact.

Congrats on your progress I like your ideas. I believe there is nothing wrong with installing carbon fiber parts and covers on a import vehicle as long as it is done tastefully and not over done like a lot of people do.

Love this topic, not so much blabla - action and a lot of pictures.

Great work on the carbon diffuser btw.
