fitment would probably be an issue. and adding significant weight in resin.

This is true...kind of. Carbon fiber is way stronger than what our doors are made out of.

No, carbon fiber is stronger then most materials in general...when pull in a vertical or horizontal motion. It's when woven fibers like carbon are pulled diagonally that they lose their strength and rigidity. Kevlar is much stronger then carbon in that it is not weakened when pulled diagonally.

looks good but i still agree black would look better for the car. a friend has a sick sti in black with an entire cf front end that is slightly blended. you cant tell its cf until you're up close. gorgeous car.

congrats man it looks good so far. Sometimes we can be a tough crowd, but do whatever makes you happy as long as the car is still safe in an accident (so study your options carefully) I say go for it.

i agree, safty is no.1 issue, but car will mostlikely be for show as of now..my little one needs a daddy, and i dont want to risk injuring myself,so for now 400whp is plenty!!
