prices going up

[Modern]

hey guys i was just letting you know that prices on carbonfiber i belive will be going up soon so just a heads up

[Phlip]

What is this in reference to? Parts made of carbon fiber or the actual fiber itself for the members who may be fabricating stuff around their homes or shops?

[Modern]

i belive the actual fiber itself will be going up. so it affects everyone

[Phlip]

And what are you basing these findings upon, I would, as would anyone else to later view this thread, like to see something to substantiate your statement

[Modern]

friend works in the Military and said that they were cause of something going on in the east. but like i said i dont have any good infomation. but if it happens then it happens.

Well, I personally thought it was to cheap as is, so the price increase will make me feel better about buying it. <~~~If you couldn’t tell, that’s sarcasm. :faint:

[infinitexsound]

a few dollars maybe but not drastically, gas is going up but that doesnt stop the world from buying it...iono carbon fiber ruins a nice paint job. but thumbs up if u want it... no hate here

[mjjstang]

damn I better get my gay weeeeng and non matching hood before supplies run out, sorry but I think it looks just stupid, hate on me or whatever but im not losing sleep over it.

this is the gayest thread ever. fiver is cheap and will be cheap and easy to make. now the whole process of making carbon fiber isnt excactly rocket science. (actually they use carbon in components)

[S14DB]

Unless hood manufatures start using aerospace-grade fiber. I doubt we'll notice.

[infinitexsound]

if they started makin aero parts like oem bumpers... then u know what, things would be jolly.. direct oem fitment is like whoa.... but carbon fiber is pretty darn gay leave that stuff to real race cars, ferraris and rj di vera...

My new 787 is going to cost so much more....
