Carbon fiber CHEAP

Would anyone have any interest in a group buy for carbon fiber options? I got some work done (this feels like a plastic surgery pitch now) and found a very affordable, skilled craftsman. I’m gauging interest in the front bumper (imaged), rear spoiler (AI generated possible image), and matching interior bottom console, garage clusters, and door latch areas. I’m not sure of pricing, but to give an idea, my bumper was under $2,000 with one order. So I would think that same option would be in a lower ranger of 1-2k. He can do glossy or matte (I chose this).

I would be interested in interior parts - gauge cluster/shifter console, inside door pull plastic piece replacement (or cover over), pillar arms.

It’s not the entire bumper just the “grille” area and it’s only a carbon fiber overlay correct? Seen your comment on it on fb

So to be clear, my bumper is a real carbon fiber overlay. He can make molds and create full carbon pieces too (it's obviously more expensive). He is located in Southern California. It might be interesting for him to create a true carbon fiber one piece upper door molding that extends all the way past the screw hole failure points to the front (to solve that issue).

I could see the appeal for an actual carbon fiber bumper for the carbon junkies in the community.

It’s cool people have more options.

Just not my cup of tea but will be sure to direct anyone trying to do this to this thread.

Door Panels redone in Carbon Fiber would be cool....
I agree. Especially since even the sweatshops in China would have to TRY not to make a superior quality door panel than the recycled cardboard coated w (? Plasti-dip? Pleather? ) and assembled sloppily with an office stapler.
