Possible C.F. Trunk Lids!!!

[burgy240]

I have two sources that wil make carbon Fibre trunk lids for teh s14 but the price is uncertain based on how many people may want them. I was just wondering who might be in if this happens!!!

[xNotoriousGQx]

I'm interested!

[silviaparts.com]

what's the price range?

[andrave]

can your sources make s13 hatches?
I think there might be a market for carbon fiber or at least fiberglass hatches, considering that everyone's is rusted out from the damn oem spoiler.
I'd take one if the price wasn't too high.

[burgy240]

I will get price ranges this week so I can polst later in the week,.....as for s13 hatches....maybe but not sure I'll ask. thanks, joe

[Yellownismo240sx]

i am interested

[SilviaDriver]

should turn this into a GB mayb?

if u make a CF trunk for a s14 will u have the 3rd brake light or no? i might be interested if the price is right with NO 3rd brake light.

[haveblue]

i would rather a s13 application

[sspikey]

yup would like to see S13 hatchback trunks for one reason. they all rust!

[TheTimanator]

I would also like a S13 hatch made of carbon or carbon/kevlar. Especailly if it was paintable....hoods look fine, but carbon fiber trunk lids look funny to me.

i'm in for an s13 hatch :)

[Boosted_Drifter]

damn all the s13 guys hijacked this thread lol ... but yeah i'd be for the s13 hatch too

[andrave]

I'm still in for the s13 hatch, even if I had to take it out in loans. stock hatches in good shape are hard to come by, and it'd be a nice way to cut some weight.

[s14slide]

I'd be down for an s14 lid depending on the price.

[lavotski]

I'd also be down for an S14 lid depending on the price. One more thing, maybe you should move this to the GB section once you get all the info. Just a thought

Maybe he should either post here or pm me in 24 hours, or I will close this thread. You can't start something and then not post in 7 days.

yeah I'll be ****ed if this guy got my hopes up and then just leaves us all teary eyed and sad. Maybe I'll send him a paper bag of poo in the mail with a cherry bomb in the middle. J/k. Hope something does come through. Slacker!(mumbling under his breath).

as long as they could be painted, the only think that i want to be carbon fiber and showing would be a hood and a good wing vis pro gt2 or C -west wing thats it!!( i like those the best).

but if you could make
fenders
hoods
trunk lids

you would get some good business if the CF was paintable

that would really drop some nice weight off the cars!!!!

[sL103]

if you did prices make sure to make them competitive with other companies out there.

anything from 300-500 should be good price (imho) anything more or less you wouldnt be making any money / anymore and it gets really pricey.

but respectively the trunk should be alittle cheaper than a hood just for the fact that less materials are being used.

also would the Cf be reinfored with a skelton frame?? thats also a crucial part of construction.

oh also doors would be nice too as long as they retained a sideimpact beam. but they again any t bone is bad enough

[Jeff240sx]

Unlocked. Post whatever info you have.

[blatch]

I would be so into this over summer.

Thanks jeff!!!
Sorry for the long wait before getting back to all of you.
Ok here it is, S14 trunk lids will be made without the third brake light since it is easier and most of you didn't want it anyway. The trunk will be about $540 but may be slightly more or less depending on how fuch CF is actually needed. We are hoping that this is a high estimate but just to make sure that is the current price as long as we get at least 5 people.

S13 hatches can also be made for the same price. again 5 poeple at least. The hatch will not come with the glass however.

HERE IS THE CATCH......we need an s14 trunk and an s13 hatch for donors. You will not get these back. I'm sure a rusted hatch can be found a a j-yard but I have no s14 trunks around here. If you have one or know where one may be in a junkyard let me know. thanks

PS: I am not a shop owner or the maker of these CF products. I simply know a shop that will do it but doesn't have the time to promote and sell them.
