Damn the center surround is stunning. are these just one offs at moment?
Well kindof. im doing this for a buddy of mine. He gave me his pieces to "skin" with carbon fiber while its getting some touch ups for the paint. Im also working on some other parts for Acura TL/ Infiniti g35/ and some random pieces here and there. Any piece can be done
if this is something youre interested in shoot me a message, maybe we could work something out
what are you using to apply the resin to the parts? brush or a roller? ive been having trouble getting it to lay smoothly and without bubbles. great work by the way!!

thanks man, hahha yea its never easy. I use a brush nothing expensive really i jsut toss them. Flat pieces should level themself nearly, but all pieces are going to need sanding for a smooth finish
thanks!!! yes both i and tthe rx7 owner have been busy to link up + i am finishing up a few extra parts....... BUT! he will be coming down for install for the 11 finsihed pieces this saturday! I will be sure to post some photos ( ones with a nice camera unlike my phone photos you have seen ) lol
Hot damn those are awesome. Might be just the ticket to get the FC a more modern look. Course I do like the classic look too but I can't deny that great carbon look.
well im trying to get the photos on.. the camera was too good! lol the photos are way too big . anysize wont fit in here. ill need to get photobucket or something.
I posted on the facebook groups "rx7" and Rx7 rotary" you can see them tehre for now!
looks good but i do believe in overkill, the bins are too much. i have been planning on doing a few bits in my FC and i was planning on starting with the brittle A pillars as well as the stereo surround and gauge hood. transforming all the plastics inside to CF, i just don't think i could stand it.
Dude those parts all look incredible!! What type/brand resin do you use? Does it level itself to that shine? When you sand them what grit do you use and then how do you finish them to get them that shiny?
I am sorry to hit you with all these questions but I have made a lot of crumby parts out of carbon that I had to scrap. Major props for doing such an amazing job, quit your damn day job!!!
