Anyone find Carbon Fiber Hood/Hatch/Door Skins?
 
The R56 has a pretty good selection of lightweight CF body parts available, but I can't find anything for the F56. Has anyone else managed to find anything worth adding in that department?

watching closely, we have a F56 to develop parts wanting input from fellow F56 owners. :thumbsup:

Well, from my end, an OEM look CF hood would be a great start. The doors and door skins, and hatches, are probably much less likely to bring interest for non-motorsport drivers.

I stumbled on this guy this evening:

Not familiar with the brand, and it's got a distinct "aftermarket" (read hideous) look to it that I'm definitely not into. It is a CF hood though, which seems to be for F56 cars.

Boy, another swing and a miss tonight. Here's another equally unattractive one:

Seems to be a different brand, but it looks identical to me. They also seem to have non-OEM looking fenders.

Given how tiny and "barely there" the fenders are, they don't really seem worth it.

I would be interested in Carbon Fiber wheel arches and a hood with real heat extractors.

On a side note.... coming from the Subaru world, stay away from anything on VisRacings site.

Would be keen for any kind of stock replacement (or close to stock) hood in CF and a rear diffuser in CF.

Ooh, yes, diffuser like a GP!
