Gauging Interest on a potential GroupBuy- Carbon Fibre Exhaust surround

[ripped_fear]

would you do one in just satin black at all? and would it be cheaper? I'm not into the whole carbon thing. Cheers.

 

Maybe this could be an option when I proceed with the GB. Will give it some thought on different options, and price would be the same as paint would be purchased instead of wrap and clear.

I could paint it....as long as its the finished shape etc mate. I was gona build an alli plate one, but I like the shape of that one you're doing.

So you would be looking for the raw fibreglass example or skimmed finished? You are the second person to ask for this. I will mention it to the mods when I pm the final details of all the break down of prices etc, as it will be part of the GB, and I will not break the rules. will let you know.

skimmed will do for me. I could even do it in the same red as my car. Just to bring a little bit of something different to the stock bumper.

[ripped_fear]

Flatted the surround down Yestereday and got it wrapped. Took a while with it being my first time doing carbon wrap, but I'm very happy with the out come.

 

There is however a small area with a few wrinkles, none of which will be on shown.

Correct the original list will be carried across but as stated I will be making a limited number. My original goal was around 10 and the list has already exceeded this so some people will be disappointed. We shall see how many I have time to make in the coming weeks.

 

Priority will be given to the people stated in the list in order of number.

Thanks bud.

 

Originally I was hoping to use the stock mounting bracket for the OEM rear bumper, this unfortunately had to be changed as to fit it you would need to remove the exhaust so seemed a little OTT for a surround.

 

So the item will have to be simply glued/bonded on using what ever you wish, I'm going to use a tiger seal like product as I used on my boot lip. As it drys absolutely solid.

[Dan_Turism0]

kool no probs Tigerseal sounds good

[Supraman]

Cheers bud you could always have a go at making one. I could do a step by step guide when I make the GB ones, if it would help you?
