gotmopar Posted April 13, 2007 Report Share Posted April 13, 2007 I would say either the header panel or front air dam because most everybodies car has one or both of these pieces in less than perfect shape Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MontyTSI Posted April 13, 2007 Report Share Posted April 13, 2007 non autoseat belt concole in FG or CF i will supply a good one to use for design (as long as it will be returned to me) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roush Posted April 13, 2007 Report Share Posted April 13, 2007 I like the header panel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
starion0352 Posted April 13, 2007 Report Share Posted April 13, 2007 since i already got a new airdam i would say header panel. actually i was thinking rocker panels too.would c/f be to brittle for a airdam? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gotmopar Posted April 13, 2007 Report Share Posted April 13, 2007 Cabon fiber would be good for either piece. Adds some strength and is another part our cars need. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Al Posted April 13, 2007 Report Share Posted April 13, 2007 May not be feasable but mirrors?The rear spoiler not the top one you made but the common 3 piece ones on most of our carsSide louvers and possibly the rear louver? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Technology Posted April 13, 2007 Report Share Posted April 13, 2007 Please god, no louvers. Big Al's first and second suggestions were great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Al Posted April 13, 2007 Report Share Posted April 13, 2007 I just want a set of sides unfortunately I doubt I'll manage to score a set of metal ones What about the 3 pieces of the grill? The pieces under the header panel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mech Posted April 13, 2007 Report Share Posted April 13, 2007 how about the whole car in carbon fiber??!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pitboss Posted April 13, 2007 Report Share Posted April 13, 2007 What about the 3 pieces of the grill? The pieces under the header panel. ^^^x2 Actually I'd be down for this also, and I'm not a big CF fan. How about the rear plastic piece around the license plate also that goes in between the tailights and houses the license plate lights? THis would tastefully complement the front grill pieces IMO and could prob. all be made affordably. Mine are all faded :roll: Maybe door handles also that say Starion or Conquest or Turbo.

92 TSi AWD Posted April 13, 2007 Report Share Posted April 13, 2007 im not too sure about how well a carbon fiber airdam would be...i mean, who would want to spend atleast 300 dollars which it would cost, and you know its gonna get busted up no matter how carefully you drive. i think header panel and headlight covers would look awesome when paired up with a CF hood. as for suggestions, i think carbon fiber door sills would be pretty cool. im not sure if thats the exact name for them. im talking about the plastic things that sit in the bottom of the door jam that most of them are either all scratched up or worn down from the years of being stepped on. well whatever the final vote comes down to im sure ill end up on the GP anyways Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
92 TSi AWD Posted April 13, 2007 Report Share Posted April 13, 2007 oh yea and about fenders....i think the widebody fenders that you can get for the RX7 and 240SX with the small vent cut in them would look nice on our cars. fiberglass would be nice because its a shame to paint over CF in my opinion and i personally think the unpainted fenders/doors/bumpers look wouldnt go with the conquest, i :roll: just my opinion... but yeah, i would definately buy a set of fenders like that for the starquest...id hate like hell to chop my stock ones to pieces in an attempt to make them. -Mike[/url] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Technology Posted April 13, 2007 Report Share Posted April 13, 2007 That's why you get a parts car or fenders from a junkyard and practice on those. I don't know how much you all know about carbon fiber, but it's indestructable, if you hit something with your airdam, that thing will assplode. Seriously though, a CF airdam and hood combo would look mad jaydeeM tight yo. And that's a good thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brattesani Posted April 13, 2007 Report Share Posted April 13, 2007 fenders! lets get rid of the heavy eyesores because they are all broken and we cant get undented ones. =P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MontyTSI Posted April 13, 2007 Report Share Posted April 13, 2007 our fenders only wiegh about 10 pounds, a reinforced fiber fender is unlikly to reduce the wieght. But i do like the idea of new replacements in any material. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MainstreaM Posted April 13, 2007 Report Share Posted April 13, 2007 Put a cup holder in that console. Be nice if you produced a factory radio surround, I wouldn't care if it was carbon fiber or not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RJ Posted April 13, 2007 Report Share Posted April 13, 2007 maybe the three piece rear spoiler in CF? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pitboss Posted April 13, 2007 Report Share Posted April 13, 2007 How about CF windshield grill piece that spans the whole width of the car by the wipers? And how about new wiper arm covers? Mine are all rusted with no paint left on them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xtreme Industries Posted April 13, 2007 Report Share Posted April 13, 2007 i like the idea of cf but it all comes down to cost. airdam with bumper molded together with a larger opening would look nice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
