Hi all,

I would like to cover my door trims with some Carbon Fibre flat panels but have no idea where I can get them from? Im aware that you can get after market 'molded' ones (but they cost heaps) so I literally just need two flat pieces big enough to cover my doors and then i'll cut to size. Should be a lot cheaper! Any ideas on where I can get that sort of Carbon Fibre?

Cheers,

Glen

I honestly don't know how you could cover your door panels with flat unless you are just doing some of the inserts that are totally flat.

Seriously have a look around a doing some covering, but you are going to be surprised how expensive just the raw carbon material is. It is about $70-100 per square meter in oz and about $30+ in the US.

Oh sorry man I made a mistake, I ment to say that I have taken the original door trims off my car (i've pretty much taken everything out of my car...) and now want to cover it up with Carbon fibre flat panel.

Hi,

We have two flat panels available in Carbon Fibre. 80 x 80cm and 50 x 50cm. Both are 1mm thick sheets.

Please let me know if your interested.

Cheers,

Shane

Oh bummer they fall just short (well kinda) because I will need them more around the measurements of 110 x 50cm. :P

Rob from www.hybridcustoms.com.au here in WA makes a true Carbon Fibre universal door skin with the dimensions being up to 1200mm wide by 1000mm deep with 40mm lip, images below are the finished product made for an R35 and some photos of them being infused.

    • Ah! I actually managed to snag a lightly used set.... that aren't so suitable for me right now. They don't work on a GTT without some cutting or creative heat moulding. I thought about reselling them myself cause I didn't want to murder them, but it looks like I'm probably going to attempt to murder them/melt them because I may as well. @GTSBoy @PranK can somebody close this thread?
    • Hey mate,  I have a set, one is slightly damaged but wont be noticable once installed.  Shoot me a message if your still after them 
    • I couldn't wait But, the black constant tension hose clamps were too thick and there wasn't enough clearance at the T/B and I couldn't get it to seat properly, so I had use a silver one there I also added some 3" silicone over the alloy bit that goes through to hole on the radiator support as it looked like it was sitting on the edge of the hole in the radiator support, I never noticed a rattle or anything, but there was a witness mark It is basicly done, and I can live with the silver hose clamp at the T/B, I will get a black clamp for the head vent though where it is attached to the bulkhead fitting  It never stops...LOL, only issue now with the shock tower brace is it slightly touches the under bonnet liner now, if I leave it it will either wear some paint off the brace where it touches, or damage the liner, so I removed the liner to see what I have to work with, with the liner removed I have about 20mm of clearance, but sadly the middle part of the underside of the bonnet is only dusted with paint and looks crap, so I cannot have that, but.... as I have a roll of Carbuilders premium under bonnet insulation in the garage laying around that is only 5.5mm thick (we were going to use it on the boys Patrol, but he crashed the front of it a few months and it was written off, hence why he now drives my old Honda Accord Euro), I'll use the OEM liner as a template and get the Carbuilders stuff fitted up to cover that dusted paint up
    • You have a knack for photography my friend. It makes the 86 look like a complete bucket. The 34 went with you to Europe and back. It's special. (we all feel the same about our 'shitboxes' that every bystander seems to absolutely love)
