The Z on the operating table makes me cry - but I know she will be fine.

I agree it is taking a long time, and there hasn't been much communication either.

Making large composite body parts is distinctly not easy. Making large CF body parts is even less so.

I appreciate the thread quite a bit, but I have to say I will be will be very surprised if you guys can pull off high-quality parts that actually fit well and last. If you do, my guess is that the labor will be so obscene that there won't be much in the way of profit on these.

Anyway, best of luck to all involved...

So I would like to start this lil mini review off with a picture:


Ok so the first Spawn Aero B-Pillar replacements are out on the market and I must say they Look FANTASTIC! the product is very solid and thin! its probably 2-5mm thick and extremely light and I mean light they are easily a 1/3 of the weight of the OEM pieces. I would type more but I will let the video speak for itself

Now on to pics! More coming tomorrow when I get to use my DSLR








Enjoy!!!
