Arrow FS: "1 of " custom carbon fiber GFX front lip!!

NOW DOING FREE SHIPPINGGGG!!! anywhere in the states!

up for sale is a "1 of" custom carbon fiber gfx front lip i was planning to put on my car this up coming summer time. i wanted something unique and different for my car so i went to a local carbon fiber fabrication company here in chicago. I told them what i was looking to do and they gave me a couple cool options on how to go about doing it. i always liked the "raw" look of carbon on track cars and they asked me if i was interested in this new sealing/hardening method without using resin that they have tested and had good results with. it gives it a very cool textured look and it really shows off the weave of the carbon fiber. But since its very new and other companies are probably catch on to this, they told me that its going to cost me a pretty penny. but since im going for uniqueness and rarity or simply something noone else have or tried. i gave it a go and i have been very happy with it.

anyways, on to the pictures of this hand laid masterpiece!





heres a photo to show off the weave/finish



Sadly, i have some family issues(mom is currently in the hospital) i had to sell items that isnt a priority as of this moment. i have no other reason to sell this. just need to free up some funds to pay off some medical related bills.

Brand new gfx lip + labor + carbon fiber and misc materials needed to make this happen = $$$$$$$$

not asking much considering how much was involved, from purchasing the lip and taking it to the company to get the work done.

only asking 415 picked up! i will ship if needed and i have a verified paypal account as well.

pm me if interested. im a reasonable guy, ill work with you as long as you are a serious buyer. i need this gone right now.

located in chicagoland area.

thanks for looking!

correct real carbon with a "special" coating/sealer/hardening compound for strength and durability. (this isnt a sticky back fake carbon sheet)

Looks like any other backside of a Gfx lip.

So in other words it's a GFX front lip wraped in CF. You made it sound out to be a like a piece made from scratch using CF.

You read what you read.. Interpret it as you want.

Read my post did it say anything about it being made from scratch? Obviously it's not a standalone piece it's needs a piece to form on.

He didn't elaborate as much as I would have but he answered the same question Papahoff's question acknowledging that it was an OEM lip wrapped with real CF.

Someone offered me 150 shipped for it. Which is absolutely insulting so now to help other members out I'm considering trades + cash. Is that a hard concept to wrap your head around?

Well I asked because I was interested and based from your story above, you need money. Now that you are considering trades, I thought you were lying and just using your your medical bill as a reason or maybe there's something wrong with your item. Sorry but I already lost my interest because judging on how you answer, you are probably difficult to deal with.
