This is a great idea. Completely unrelated to this thread, however a poly lip makes the most sense to me. Carbon or fiberglass just cracks way to easily to justify the 1k+ price tag IMO.

Thumbs up TRD Parts Please!

Here is a good base for the company and would definitely gain some interest from our fellow F owners:


.
Carbon Fiber Hood

Carbon Fiber Front Splitter

Carbon Fiber Rear Difusser

Carbon Fiber Rear Spoiler

Make all of the above mentioned at an affordable price and the customers will come!

The paddle shiftters on the ISF are made out of magnesium, aluminum would be a cheap downgrade.

Afterall, what is an affordable price?

If you want good quality, they won't be cheap.

If you want cheap, they won't be good quality.

This is something we all understand.........

And if we are going to produce something, it needs to be something that will have a lot of interest.

Please try to tell me what's your affordable price for the product you are interested in.

And that product will need to have at least 25-30 people that will be interested in it.

I guess front lip and rear diffuser might be easier to start with.

I would honestly buy those splitters for max maybe $300-350 and the rear diffuser i would pay about $500-550 for it The cheaper the better but with great quality lol
