I've been wanting these things in CF for the xB for the LONGEST time :

-CF Hatch Handle, Full replacement, DECENT price.

-CF Strut Bar. Real CF, Metal ends, Round style.

-CF Seats, which you posted, and I really would like to get a set.

-CF Gas Door, Full CF or CF Overlay that covers the sides also.

-CF FRONT FACE FINISHER!!!!!!!

We really need better grilles. The OEM sport grille's are fugly, we can't get the kenstyle grille (which is possibly the best one out there) without buying the whole freaking lipkit, and the rest is expensive as hell to import.

what about the c-one styled grille that has no slats, just mesh?
lip kits that fits 06 xA's
back on that grille topic, how about a panel that has a small air scoop in it? (i can picture it better than i can describe it)
cf rear hatch like the xb's have?
different side mirrors
fender flares? (ive heard a couple of xa owners say they wouldnt mind fender flares)
carbon fiber interior peices, like a-pillar guage pod
a CF center console (where the cup holders are) would rock!

Yep, I would like to see a CF hatch, I would love to see fender flares and CF dash trim. Oh yea, One thing that we really need is a CF hood that has some kind of vent and isn't OEM style.

If you actually make some of this stuff for xA's that we never see, you would be God to us.

No one has made a vented/scooped hood for the Xa yet? Are you kidding? This is SERIOUS NEGLECT!

Just so everyone knows. I have emailed the mods with a question I had about becoming a sponsor. There have been some good ideas posted here & I appreciate it.

I was only able to spend a few minutes on Ebay to see what was there. Now I need to research what some other vendors have and don't have to offer.

I think there is work to be done as far as getting you more parts and more selections.

I also have 4, yes, 4! other carbon/Kevlar back hybrid seat designs that I will introduce soon. That makes 5 hybrids all together!

So, sorry, but get your wallets ready...Hahaha!

there was a reverse cowl vented hood for the xA for a little while, but the provider stopped making it a little while ago, so they are extremely hard to find

There have been two i've heard of. The C-One hood has a nice looking vent, but the cheapest i've seen is $850 to import. There was this other one I saw a pic of on a Japanese xA, but I couldn't find any info on it at all.

Hmm I thought of something I havent seen on here before and I know I would buy!
For the tC doors I think having some CF front speaker holders would be awesome!! The ones that slant out a bit....(I couldnt find a picture exactly) I know it would require a little cutting on the door panel, but hell if it was done right it would look amazing.

Is there any way you could post a pic of this? I've looked around, but I can't seem to find it anywhere...
