We do alot of it in house and some we send out as we dont have the time to mass produce things right now. It seems to be a good way to keep costs down as well.

How so? With proper prep work I would think it be no different then the metal counterpart?

It all depends on who is looking at it… beauty is in the eye of the beholder, correct?

^ the fabrication process of the piece is what makes the difference… not just because it’s carbon fiber.

And ten pounds of mud… I have yet to see any carbon/fiberglass piece that is even close to an OEM part in quality.

My question was not in quality of the piece but rather paint matching to the factory color which she said would come out looking like ass.

its the carbon fiber itself, not the paint matching
even if u sanded it and primered it would still look like poo?
i know if u look at some CF products, hoods for examples you can sometimes see waves, but i figured that would get eliminated with sanding and the primer

Your saying this doesnt look good? Ryan Gates Evo X with PAINTED! carbon fiber doors, roof, hood, and trunk there so light! I’ve seen it in person it looks GREAT! with a proper body guy you cant tell the diffrence. Also, you can notice a big diffrence in weight it took no effort to open his door. I believe his evo went from a whopping 3,500 lbs to around 2,750 lbs. So I think the RICER would look great with painted carbon doors and it goes with there whole lightweight theme with the street car look but thats my opinioin and you know wht they say abt opinions.
