R50/53 Custom carbon fiber parts for MINIs
CooperGear has you beat.
Like it has already been said so well in this thread, you can't compare fake carbon pattern application to a plastic piece to something that is real carbon fiber overlay. Saying CooperGear has him beat is wrong in so many ways. The products are not even comparable in my mind. Real is always > fake overlay.
Products look great, I have a few ideas of what I would like to see, I am a carbon junkie myself.
sorry guys iv been in the shop all day working on my dash , but responded BTT.
ive got some great news, looks like we are going to be really close to their price, so far we are looking at $400 for for r50-r53 dashes 3 and 5 piece just because they are all the same length, as for an r56 we dont know havent been able to look at it fairly yet. but basically here is what we do , you pay to have your items shipped to us as cheaply as you see fit, we will the do our magic and ship them back to you the shipping back is in the price.
ive got some items started on my r53 and all i can say is "wow" my mini is bringing sexy back, ill post pics when im all done, my goal is by the end of the week so you all can see ( we both have full time jobs )
as far as the door panels, we dont know yet, i know you have to get those pieces off, and well i havent figured out how yet

I second the scoop idea. I have the JCW hood scoop and love it but would love even more to have some more air on my IC and look good doing it with the CF!!
ok guys after a good talk with BTT i need to re-clarify this, we do real carbon fiber overlay. basically we do the samething coopergear does but with real carbon fiber, i promise you wont tell that fact that its overlay. also i dont expect any orderes untill im done with my dash, its one thing to see s2000/civic parts but if you dont own one then they arent as apealing, i understand . ill keep you guys updated. im still more then happy to give quotes though
well i have time to do to do paying customers
, i would rather get everyone elses stuff out before mine it doesnt bother me, but i will tell you what i am doing to my car this weekend, i have a custom dual exhaust that doesnt come out of the center and i had to cut the difuser so im going to cover it in carbon fiber

ahhh nice...there was someone just selling a custom magnaflow exhaust with dual outlets and he had the lower valence remade in fiberglass to allow the twin tips to stick out...have you thought about incorporating a real diffuser into it and having the exhaust come out between the bottom of the bumper and the top of the diffuser?
EDIT: I just remember you said earlier that you only like to cover things not make and mold stuff my bad....and can't really blame ya either that would be a lot more work!!

well i can make somethings, by using plexiglass , but we do a couple things tha are whats called dry carbon, but we are limited to items that dont have clips and are smaller items. the civic fuel pump cover that was in my first post is made from a mold that we have, the other problem is you have to have an undistrial sized machinery and well we dont (yet). but i did get my first order off of NAM so
and will have awesome results
