Very nice. Since the doors on the 370z are aluminum, I’m thinking that going to carbon wouldn’t get me a whole lot of weight saving. Same thing with the hood and rear hatch. How much do your doors weigh?

I'm not sure he is still actively making 350/370z parts, but...

He has his hands full being the official McLaren Body Repair guy for the Chicago area. Though that should give you some level of indication to the quality of his carbon work.
