Hurry hurry mail mine first!

 

Second

 

I have a Set of 91-92 Hood Blisters I'd be willing to send and wouldn't feel bad about the part breaking if I got a free pair of blisters (or ridiculously reduced price) out of it. they'd need to be sanded and preped because some youthful kid in his ignorance (smack forehead) spray painted them when he spray painted his hood to keep it from rusting.... i know i know... i was an idiot.

Anyway sweet looking grill - Interested to see the wet version next to it to decide which style i like more. Alas no money this month, but will definitely be keeping an eye on this in future months.

I second the CF Dash pad though.... would love to have that piece.

 

I third the CF Dash Pad

 

My dash is perfect. No need to CF it yet. The SHELL on the other hand..

 

my dash is also near mint but a CF dash would be nice especially for racing.

 

My dash pad used to be perfect... and like the other three.... the FL sun kills them. i garage keep mine and use a windshield reflector when outside, but it still cracks.... tired or replacing them... would rather wax, buff to a shine, and be done.... always planed on doing a fibre glass one, but i'd go CF instead...since i don't know how to work with CF.

 

I'm going to stick with the small stuff for now that's a lot of work to make a dash pad. Maybe a cover for it instead just bond it in place or bolt in with the factory locations.

 

I don't guess you would be up to cf door panels then?

 

Not at this time.

 

DEPOSIT made

 

LAST CALL
Last call for those that want to get in on the first set of grilles. Ordering material at the end of the week.

 

I WILL be ordering one as soon as I get paid- hopefully tomorrow or early next week! so if you want to get a little extra material on 'spec'...

 

I'm in. But what about doing some smaller parts like the camaro radio bezel? Or the manual shift plate? Shift plate might be more involved, I would settle for it to be overlayed

 

Should have enough to do a few more after the first ones are finished.

 

I don't think I am going to get into overlays since you can get them on line so cheap. I wouldn't be able to compete with their pricing. Have to much time in cutting them out and water jetting is expensive.

 

I bought a real carbon fiber overlay kit a fews years ago... I posted some pre-installation pics... didn't like it. Never installed it. Search it if you want see what they look like.

 

I havent been online in a few days. I just sent payment now.

Got it. Thank you

 

k maybe overlay is the wrong word..

i meant carbon fiber wrapped..

 

Materials are on the way. They should be here sometime this week.

 

How's it coming along?

 

Was wondering the same

 

I exchanged a couple PM's last week, and he got hung up with a project at work that didn't allow him as much free time as he wanted. So he hasn't got then finished, but told me he expected to be able to work on them more this weekend.

I'm as excited as you guys are... I'm sure!!!

 

have never been a fan of CF other than functional stuff like hoods or drive shafts, but this looks freaking amazing. definatly a work of art.

 

Thanks just giving yall an update they are coming along nicely. Just got the first one done as you saw in the post. Sorry for the long time between posts been having to work tons of overtime at work. Getting a months worth of work done in two weeks is killer, but that comes with working in motorsports.

 

Take your time, make it perfect

 

any updates?

 

I guess not

 

ok, seriously....i hate that i haven't had time to patrol around on TGO for the past 6 months...damn WAR!!! I am totally interested in this...i leave afghan in 3 days.....will be able to paypal when back in the states...do you still have room for one more? it would match my car perfectly...i'd take some pictures you could use to sell....if you continue to sell these.

 

Any word on progress?

Thanks.

 

Your all gonna hate me...







So as you can see I paid Matt a little extra to have him clear coat the carbon for the gloss look I'm going for. I will be starting a thread in the appearance board after I get some installed pics.

Initial inspection... Thing is beautiful. The pattern in the weave is super even, and consistent, and edges are sharp and clean. The bowtie is perfect! I will probably re-paint the bowtie myself, but you guys have nothing to worry about as far as I can see. Can't wait to install it!

Thanks mattmeritt89!!!! PM Matt for more details and cost on the next batch if you didn't get in on the first batch.

 

Very nice. Matt did an excellent job.

 

Nice, when do the rest of us get the memo that ours are ready?

 

Been trying to work on them a few hours a week now that all of the crazy over time is done. Goal is to start putting them out about every week to week and a half, now that I have some time.

 

For a vet I think I can get you in on it.

 

im down saveing my penys now

 

Wouldn't that fit my 88 rs too?

 

How many waiting in front of me?? I can't wait to get it (and I have to have the damned thing shipped in a container so it takes 8 extra weeks)

 

Yeah, could you post a running order of who is in line for the grill and their current position?

 

Just saw this. if I pay now, how long before I get mine?

 

what he said

 

The CF work is very nice, but what is that Nissan 'thing' you been working on?

 

starting to get a little nervous with the lack of communication....

 

It will be worth the wait man...

 

Yup you are in the world of custom parts made by a guy on his free time. I can assure you he'd name making much money on these. We are certainly not paying his normal hourly rate.

I wouldn't worry about, they will be done eventually, and I'm pretty they will be awesome.

 

Takes only a min to post updates, just because he's doing these on the side does not give him a pass on communication.

 

Yup you are right. However it also only takes one or two lousy customers to convince him to not produce parts any more. The biggest pain with running a side business is the customers.

You are right, it is no excuse. But I'd rather have it making unique quality parts with little communication than have him stop because the process is to painful for him.

Unfortunately it is the reality of most garage businesses.

 

no one asked for your input here I just would simply like to know a time outlook I did pay the deposit I do not think I am asking to much also no one is going around slandering his name i have nothing but good things to say about what i have seen of his work.

 

CF the dash pad would be amazing, imo would look sick and no cracking? #winning#
