Default CF tC checking in



car is still being worked on. will update with more details after the SEMA show.

pretty much every replaceable exterior body panel is CF

and the shiny silver box thingy in the mouth of the front bumper is just the new A/C condensing unit. i like my A/C ice cold. ;)

new pic of the front fender:

thanks for the positive replys... yes, this tC is wearing a very freakishly large smile. i'm also open to criticism as well, but then my tC might start frowning.

the body components aren't going into production as far as i know.

the go-fast parts under the hood will be on sale after the SEMA show.

i don't want to steal all of my sponsor's thunder before the show, so pics and more details will have to wait until later.

if you ever want a crew to roll with to shows and such. Check out Team Solo. Our president will be there with his 08 G35 and a potential member with a tC will be there also.

link in the sig.

if you're referring to the big "mouth" then i'm not sure what the future holds there... maybe a fine mesh black grille? i agree that the size of the opening is unusually large.

i'm open to suggestions.

thanks for the kind responses.

emotor didn't fab the CF, it was outsourced. i will be able to disclose more details after SEMA. sorry for being somewhat elusive with my answers, but the truth will come out after the show.

so EVERYTHING on the outside is CF..what color was the car originally?
the car was originally SSM and it still retains that color on the rear quarter panels and the A pillars since those parts are integral with the frame of the automobile. it looks weird, and breaks up the lines of the car, but i think some vinyl graphics will help.
