Alot of people don't want them with holes, so if the customer wants to use them functionally, then they just have to dremel out slots for air like the stock ones. Some people want to bolt gauge pods to them, or whatever, so if they were standard with slots, then those people couldn't use them.

He can make copies of the stock ones, but they would be 4 times the cost of new ones. New ones are $15 each in OEM format.

it is almost impossible to make new ones in CF. This looks extremely easy to make. you guys realise that you have to make a mold and something that small is not easy with a complex shape like a demister peice.

Hey, those look just like the ones i made on my personal vehicle. I purchased a sheet of 12"x12" Carbon fiber traced and cut. It looks really good too.

Dave G. keep up the good work over there man, these should sell like hot cakes!

Regards,

Once again thank you for pursuing CF items for our cars.

So how does it bolt in there? Are they just flat panels or have clips on them?

One thing I might ask as a possible part.

A guage pod which mounts into the demister grill for the drivers side.

I am going to try this myself since you can use the grill hole to hide wiring.
