Just a little update on the car guys
Cage is almost completed.
Seibon Dry Carbon Fiber showed up yesterday. The look and feel is top notch.
Dry Carbon CW Hood with Reverse Scoop
This stuff is just super impressive, Super Lightweight and Strong! It's just awesome.
Seibon Dry Carbon Trunk Lid
Seibon Carbon Doors
For those of you that have always wonderd how much wider the APR Widebody is compared to the OEM body check out the gap when the door is installed minus the flare.

Love the dry carbon hood/trunk. Problem is, the doors won't match. Yes, it's a racecar so looks aren't #1. However, have you guys thought about stripping off the clearcoat and giving them a matte finish, to get the doors to at least look similar, albeit without the benefits of dry carbon?

Well looks like someone leaked some info a bit early.
Instead of the same old boring rendering that everyone else sues, we decided to go a different route. We had HPI build us a version using one of their new RC Chassis. This gives everyone and the sponsors a better look at what we will be running.
Enjoy
