ya i kinda understand your frustration. but ill get headlight covers donw on my list. 89+ trim would be very costly. just because of all the clips you owuld have to get. if i can get enough people ill look into it.

The only way i'd buy a center console, although very beautiful, is if I had a matching Carbon dash. I'm very particular and OCD about things looking right. I do however love the workmanship an crafting quality of these parts. I'm basically waiting to just buy a full set all at once.

Basically,

Dash
Center Console
Door Panels

I know I probably have a long wait, if they will ever even be made. :shrug:

those items would all be pretty damn expensive. just for the fact of how big they are all the contours in them. ill talk to them tho. if i can onyl get one person for them you mine as wlel nto want it because it costs way to much to do one thing in cf.

A well moderated (no problems there), long duration group buy for the more expensive items. A sign up period (couple months or so), once the sign up list is finalized, each person could make a deposit that would cover the manufacturer R&D costs along with material costs for a prototype.

Then PATIENCE and a good amount of time for people to gather funds. I'm sure it could be pulled off with the right people at the helm, if they want these larger CF pieces bad enough.

I Likes this idea, if it can be done. but i'm curious. will there be like a web site or a forum section here to buy this stuff thats already made? or is it like buy now or miss your chance forever?

ok when i hear from the shop ill get al sit together and see what they will work with. if we get a group buy and it is approved we will see how well it will go. i will try to talk to the shop and get them to keep all the molds or see if i can just have the molds when group buy is done so we can do more as epople need them in the future. also what does everyone think of a top secret "style" hood for the mk4's but on a mk3

As long as the venting was on the sides of the center cowl, and not all rounded off. It would have to match the curves of the car. I think i could like the idea.

EDIT: BTW, I do design work in 3ds Max 2009. If you have some ideas or want to see some prototype visuals in full 3d, let me know, and I can try to whip something up.

or perhaps an airbox? or perhaps the coolant windshield washer resovoir cover? Spark plug cover? Cam cover? Fan shroud? Just to name a few somewhat simple ideas that iv'e seen on other cars.
