Very tempting price if you can get them in the $1100-1400 range for the FD. How hard will these be to install? I've had the interior door panels off my FD before and it looks like it would be hard to replace the door shell.

I noticed this site has FD full doors in carbon fiber and plastic for a reasonable price...

http://www.aerokits.net/cart/index.p...x&cPath=75_204

I hear that GTP parts are cheaply made and don't fit well but the C-Wings parts I've heard about fit better. The CF C-Wings doors look like they are CF over fiberglass but don't look too bad. I wouldn't want to take the chance on something that doesn't fit well and I would like to have vacuum infused for weight savings and strength. Anyone have any experience with C-Wings parts? Any opinions?

C-Wings is a brand developed by GTP (aka importfan.com). It's basically the same thing. Trust me, I worked there 4 years ago . The site you are referring to is basically selling C-wings products. They are all handlaid parts.

Thanks for clearing that up. Doors really needs to have very good fitment and quality definitely counts.

I do too, if it would speed the production at all, I could pay %100 now with the shipping cost.

pretty much i'm a motivated buyer, since these are the last part I've been wanting to get before the bodyshop sendoff. got the widebody, hood, diffuser, bumpers, and a spoiler

this is all I need now. hehe

Just read the "other thread" Props to Carbon man, but I think we're more realistic and pricing and can offer something fairly adequate.

I think it is great that you're bringing dry carbon up to the stage. Dry carbon is far more superior to wet carbon. I'm interested in the doors, but it all depends on how it would look from the inside. Will the door panels be able to fit right on and will those of us who drive our rx7s on the street be able to use our power or manual windows?

In +1 set if the above is true.
