Default FS ALL: Custom Carbon Fiber and Bodywork

I have been a member for several years on here. I have built a few cars. I have done numerous custom pieces and I wrap pieces in carbon fiber/kevlar/texalium/etc.
I recently talked to the moderator (Tomas) about offering my services on here with my fellow members. I told them I couldnt afford to be a sponsor. But since I am just offering services it wasnt necessary to be a sponsor. I could just post under the private party...

So all of this means I can offer custom wrapped carbon fiber pieces to you guys at a reasonable price. I have a small roll of carbon fiber left from back when it was affordable. So to the first few customers I can give a lower price.

Popular pieces to be wrapped are armrests, mirror caps, radiator cooling panel, fuel door, etc. Basically anything you can ship me I can wrap. I will give out quotes on here the more you have wrapped and the earlier you purchase the cheaper it will be.

Example... CF armrest 85 dollars. Give or take a few dollars.
JUST REMEMBER. FIRST COME FIRST SERVE
Unless I have a piece already done your turnaround time will be around 3 weeks.
I am working alone to keep costs down. I can also make any size flat panel you are interested in. If you are worried about the cost but still want that carbon fiber look. One company I deal with now makes dyed fiberglass that looks just like 2x2 CF.

If you are interested in a material other than carbon fiber just let me know. I can get anything out there. I am attaching pictures of projects Ive done and different options you have.

Thanks for your time

I can also get any color you and think of fiberglass woven with carbon fiber. The industry is coming out with some great stuff. Holographic carbon is crazy lookin too.
I can get pictures of samples of any material or color you are interested in.

Thanks
John
I am excited to get these products done.

im very interested in your work! i live in md so i could drop off the pieces to be covered instead of having to deal with shipping.. how much would that save me in pricing for say a center console cover?
