i want to know where i can buy one like that. made for drag cars.... anyone know?

Audiofight 07-13-05 08:10 PM

Probably custom made by the owner or the crew for the car.........but I could easily be wrong.

:D when u find out let me know :D

sleeperfc 07-13-05 08:52 PM

im searching hardcore... i found one for the FD. has cutouts for head lights and everything. $1400 BUT!!!! i have a fc... so....


help me search!

Funkspectrum 07-13-05 08:53 PM

Custom....

sleeperfc 07-13-05 08:55 PM

well before i assume its a 1 off custom job im going to keep looking. If you know of one please link me. If you dont know and assume that its a custom only thing them please save your post for the lounge. this is a tech section.

Funkspectrum 07-13-05 08:59 PM

Well, i'm pretty sure it's a one off custom job. You actually my be able to contact racing beat about it since they had a one-peice front end on that bonneville flats FC. They'll tell ya if it's custom or not.

I, on the other hand, have never seen one for sale or even heard of one for sale. What I do know is that Carbon Creations may have a CF front clip available for the FC soon, but that's beside the point...

sleeperfc 07-13-05 09:13 PM

here is the FD one http://www.srmotorsports.com/93Rx7_F...ssFrontend.jpg

I don't think the FC is a popular enough drag car like the FD to have that kind of product variety my friend.

i made mine, didnt integrate the hood into it but the fenders and bumper are all fiberglass

gerbraldy 07-14-05 12:56 PM

I found a complete fiberglass body for the FC on ebay a while back for 3500, it looked just like a stock body. I remember him saying that the whole front section weighed about 43lbs. You could do that yourself cause it does look clean, but I don't know why. Everybody that I have ever seen with a molded front has regret doing it because of the cracks from hitting curbs, maybe they didn't do it right?


But getting your front bumper off has to be a challenge along with removing your fenders cause I assume you have to do it all at the same time.

sleeperfc 07-14-05 01:08 PM

i was wanting the whole thing as one piece... so the whole thing would come off at once.

Funkspectrum 07-14-05 06:31 PM

that's cool...

I guess I was wrong. They DO sell em for the FC....crazy...

Rotary101 07-14-05 09:53 PM

ive seen only like 1 or 2 of them on ebay

sleeperfc 07-14-05 11:26 PM

ok the email i got back from speed machine performance.... they make lots of stuff for our cars in CF and FG already.

here is the email... looks good. everyone post here if your serious about one.. we could actually get this going. btw i plan to try to run one on my street car :) ill figure out something about lights... but i like the idea of saving all the weight and being able to pull the whole front off when i want to work on my car.

"I am waiting to see from my maker, but he thinks we are looking at approx
$500-$600 for fg, and I have no quote on cf yet.

Why would you want to run one on a street car? So that when you hit a curb while parking and the fiberglass shatters you can replace the whole thing for $600+, instead of just buying the body part you need for $200? And the stock bumper is urethane, so it wouldn't even shatter if you hit a curb. :rolleyes:
