Hi folks;

Here are some new parts just picked-up last night and to be installed this weekend:

He's getting his seats done as well.... Everything should be back together for final pictures installed pictures this weekend!!

 

Holy carbon fiber thats a lot, at the same time, I like it a lot though. Great work!

 

holy crap! i love the look of carbon fiber! I personally wouldnt have done every single piece of the interior but if thats the look youre goin for, thats pretty sweet!

 

damn, that must be a lot of man hrs

 

overkill...

 

Thanks guys..... It's a show car..... Competes in the biggest shows in Canada. Won Best in Class and Best Interior at it's last show....... Guy wanted to make an impression; and DID!

My next project is a similar level build for an imported 1997 RHD Japanese-spec RX-7. another show car in the making this time....I have 20+ pieces to do for him as well.....

 

looks sick! How is this done?

 

Hi.

The short version is sanding and chemically treating the original factory parts to obtain a nice rough surface, priming black if a different colour, resanding and then laying down a coat of resin, embedding the carbon fibre cloth into the resin and forming it to the part. Once the resin has cured, remove the excess cloth and begin to add addditonal layers of resin (typically 4-5 more) until resin is sufficently thick to cover cloth and then samd till level and smooth (I usually light sand between coats as well). Completely smooth with no blemishes as the next step is clear coating.

Finally clear coat and once clear coated, wet sand with 800, 1500 and 2000 grit paper before buffing to a perfect finish.

That's it; simple..... LOL

 

Lol I was hopping there was a easier way. I did that to my door handles and Mann it took some time. How much will u charge to do something like this?

 

seen this in person looks sick

 

great work, wish you where local

 

Thanks! There were a lot of hours put into this project.....

You're right; it looks even better in person.... Wait till he gets the new seats installed and last 7 pieces installed.... I've asked him to take updated pictures when it's all done... Should be this weekend.

Here a couple of pictures I really liked:




So do as we are just getting into winter up here now.... getting a little frosty for me... get me a place to work; I'll come down and wrap for you.....

 

you'd seriously come down to Cali?

 

absolutely!

 

Very impressive!! Wish I knew how to do that!!
