Carbon Fiber Z-Tube

I've searched and searched and searched...and can't seem to find one from a "reputable" source, other than UTR, which I've heard are brittle.

Any advice from someone who's got one?

Anyone have one they're willing to sell?

There was one on my350z recently, but I see it's sold. I'd keep watching over there.

I was thinking of a different one, actually.

CF look would go nicely with my green G. I just don't have the 'green' right now to make it happen!

they are really phucking hard to find!!! I've been looking for the past couple weeks... UTR doesnt even have them anymore.

I have a source that says they have some on order - being shipped form Japan - they were due last Thurs, but haven’t arrived... I wont name the source yet (because I want to make sure I get one when they come in) - but once I get confirmation that they are in stock (and I have one in hand), I'll post their info.

I saw that, Chris! I really like that it comes with couplers and clamps, but at that price...how sturdy can it really be?

I would buy one. Why? Just to say I had one. And because Grant made it.

Hey Grant...how about I buy a regular one, ship it to you + some dough, and you ship me back the CF one?
