Carbon fiber driveshafts have a horsepower limitation from what I remember. Go buy an aluminum one, theyre cheaper, theyre light as hell, and you cant break them.
Oh and to the guy who wants to be driving a zonda F - only ricers leave CF unpainted  |
I think a unpainted adjustable chin spoiler on a black V would look good...

It's like Lambo doors and Wings, OK if it comes out of the factory that way but to add it....
RICER
CF good for shedding weight but I really wouldn't want to leave the weave exposed either.
Heat extractor hood similiar to the CTS-VR is what I vote for. Spectre is close but it's not the same.

Yes, I like Lambo doors on Lambo's, I like Carbon fiber on R8's....
Seems like when people go to add it onto a car that didn't have it they go too far or put it in places where it doesn't belong.
The Z06 has carbon fiber but they painted it, smart move. |

And of course they painted the Z06 it would look kinda silly with unpainted fenders, trunk lid etc and the rest of the car painted |

The initial comment wasn't pointed at you, it was just a general comment. I agree, the Carbon fiber Chin spoiler on a black V would look good. |

There is already a V that's a dedicated track car with extensive carbon fiber, so it's been done. How does under 3100 lbs sound? |

What is the method in which you produce your CF parts? Wet or dry method?
The roof will be tough to install. The easiest would be your Front fenders, hood, and trunk. I already have most of the parts minus the front and rear bumper...
Again, interested in which method you produce the CF parts...
And unpainted CF is just WRONG...Mine are all painted for that sleeper approach... | | Cadillac Discussion Tools | | |
